HIGHLIGHTS!

Ramadan

In February 2022, we held a webinar on diabetes and Ramadan offering information and support for anyone preparing for and participating in the holy month where we heard from people with lived experience of diabetes and Ramadan, Moulana Azizur Rahman and health expert Dr Waqas Tahir, from Act as One and West Yorkshire Health and Care Partnership. You can watch the webinar here.

Art for Activism

We’d love for you to create a piece of art that brings to life what diabetes means to you. We’ll be taking the art you create to Parliament, to show MPs what life with diabetes is really like and inspire them to take action and prioritise diabetes care.
