We talk with Simon McKee, who has lived with type 1 diabetes all his life. He hasn’t let the condition stand in the way of adventure, having experienced some of the most extreme environments on the plant, from racing across oceans, to climbing the highest mountains and trekking across a polar ice-cap. It hasn’t always been easy and has now left investment banking to run a company, Diabetes Take Control.
