John, the end of 2023 is fast approaching! Whether you’ll be celebrating or not, we hope you’re starting to wind down for some well-deserved rest before the new year arrives.

If festivities are on your agenda but concerns about managing your diabetes are making you feel stressed, we’re here for you. Whether you live with diabetes or will be celebrating with someone who does, changes to your usual diet and routine can be a source of anxiety.  Don’t worry, we’ve put together all the advice you need for this time of year. 

Get ready for Christmas ( [link removed] )

From healthy eating and staying active to alcohol alternatives and recipes we know you’ll love; we’ve gathered our festive top tips in one place. So, get ready to enjoy your stress-free celebrations.  

We also wanted to let you know that our Helpline team will be taking a Christmas break. The Helpline will close at 3pm on Friday, 22 December 2023 and reopen at 9am on Tuesday, 2 January 2024. Until then, you can still reach the team by phone ( 0345 123 2399 ) and email ( [email protected] ) for support and advice.

Festive recipes to try 🍴🎄

A must try main 🍴

Fancy a centre piece that will impress veggies and meat-eaters alike? Look no further than this nut roast. You may be guilty of thinking that nut roast is the boring option, but this combination of chestnuts, cranberries, squash, garlic and more is certain to be a seasonal flavour sensation that will go down a treat with all of your traditional roast trimmings.

Crumbly mince pies 🥧

We all know it wouldn’t be Christmas without a mince pie (or two) and our crumble top pies are the perfect way to enjoy a healthier twist on a festive classic. Made with wholemeal flour and topped with fresh fruits and nuts, these mince pies are higher in fibre and lower in fat than other options but, don’t worry, they’re still packed with the festive flavours you love.
