Parents Network Meeting Saturday 17th March 2012

Diabetes Power Parents Network Meeting.


After many months/years of constantly being shocked and stunned by the vast difference's in services throughout the UK.The many battles we have endured. Perhaps the way forward is for parents to unite.  Together we can help shape the future services for our children.

It will be a huge challenge, however there are some amazing Consultant's, hospital services, commissioner and charities who are willing to support families who have children with Type 1 Diabetes.

Add to this some of the truly inspirational parents/children, together we will make a difference.Together we can raise awareness of Type 1 Diabetes.


Why do the following vary greatly from area to area? After all Type 1 Diabetes is Type 1 Diabetes !!!
