Sam Brand
I am a professional athlete, with the aim to change the world for those around the world affected by diabetes. Living with diabetes myself I want to use the platform to show what’s possible. During my career so far I have raced at the pinnacle of the sport having raced the Monument of cycling – Milan San Remo – three times as well as multiple WorldTour Breakaways and two Commonwealth Games appearances for the Isle of Man. Alongside these races I have the fantastic opportunities to speak and share my mission and that of the team I represent, Team Novo Nordisk (the world’s first all-diabetes professional cycling team). All I do is not only in reflection and in representation of the global diabetes community but the fantastic Isle of Man community that I am beyond proud of.
