Last year we provided support and resources to over 17,000 people living and working with diabetes
We can provide caring, friendly and ongoing support, especially when the going gets tough.
What we do
We are an organisation for people living with diabetes run by people living with diabetes. We recognise that when one person in a family lives with diabetes, this affects other family members and we offer support to partners and parents. We raise awareness of important issues for people with diabetes and provide information in non-medical language.
