Make diabetes the centre for any new health plan

Diabetes is a hidden condition, but the people living with diabetes should never be put to the back of the queue because of that.

One in 14 of us live with diabetes and even more care for a loved one who does.

That’s why, in Diabetes Week, June 13-19, we’re calling on decision makers across the UK to do more to support people living with and affected by diabetes.

Let’s stand together and tell them to listen.

We’re calling for a commitment that diabetes is put at the heart of national and local health plans so people living with, and at risk of, diabetes get the care they need.

Visit www.diabetes.org.uk to sign up to receive the latest updates from our campaign, Diabetes Is Serious, and find out more ways you can get involved.
