Hi all,
I thought I would chat about my Diabetes support group Circle D, run by my friend Shelley Bennett.
The mission and aim of Circle D is to support as many 18-30 year old’s with diabetes as possible. This can be through all sorts of different ways, such as Facebook, the forum, the website, the meetings or events. They welcome anyone, and you can get involved however much as you wish, as long as you feel supported and feel it is making a difference to you.
Circle D also want to raise awareness of Diabetes and the myths associated with it. Circle D often fundraises, raises awareness, holds events, supports others and generally does anything possible to make a difference to 18-30 year old’s living with Diabetes.
Out meet-ups take place in North Kent, they are fun casual events, where you can chat about diabetes, and get help from other members. Shelley also tweets, see the Circle D twitter page here.
Diabetes UK supports Circle D, see here.
There are also several other Diabetes Support groups around the UK, these are North London Young Diabetics, Circle D North Devon, Circle D North Yorkshire, Circle D Norwich, Circle D Southampton, BexleyYoung Diabetics, MYD – Midlands Young Diabetics, Diabetes Support Group – Scottish Borders, Diabetics Unanonymous – Lincoln, Diabetes & YOU – Cumbria, B3D Blackburn
