Giles Peters, 17, was inspired to set up Diabetic Hampers after trying to put together a hamper for his diabetic uncle. He found that there was very little choice for diabetics and decided there was a gap in the market.

Giles sourced products from a number of small companies, checked them with dieticians for suitability, and launched the company in the summer of 2007. He now sells selected hampers through a gift catalogue and is in talks with several other partners to help boost revenue.
