Transforming the Workplace: Training Local Businesses to Tackle Diabetes

In an effort to better support employees living with or affected by diabetes, Diabetes UK South West and South Central is offering specialised training for local businesses.

This comprehensive training aims to equip companies with the knowledge and confidence to understand diabetes, particularly focusing on prevention and management of type 2 diabetes.

Fishermen’s Mission Joins the Training

This month, Diabetes UK is set to train the Fishermen’s Mission, a crucial step towards raising awareness of diabetes within the fishing community. Fishermen often face unique challenges due to their demanding schedules, which can make it difficult for them to prioritise healthcare appointments. By educating the Fishermen’s Mission, the organisation hopes to bridge this gap and promote better health practices among fishermen.
