About this event

This Diabetes Week, let's change how we talk about diabetes. 

8 out of 10 people living with diabetes say they’ve faced negative attitudes because of their diabetes - people passing judgement, making sweeping statements, or blaming and shaming people living with diabetes.  

This is diabetes stigma. And it causes real harm to millions.  

If you have Diabetes and you feel that it has impacted your experience of accessing healthcare in Dorset, we would love to hear from you.
