How will Brexit affect my medication supply?
|
|
With ongoing political uncertainty in Westminster, many of you will want to know the latest on what impact a possible no-deal Brexit could have on your access to insulin and other diabetes medicines and devices. We’ve been working hard behind the scenes, sharing your concerns with the government and checking in with insulin and other medicine manufacturers. We want to make sure you have the information you need to stay in the know.
We’re keeping all of this information in one place – our Brexit blog – where you'll find the latest about the preparations the government are making for the UK, as well as dedicated information from our teams in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

Finding physical activity that works for you
|
|
Every little bit counts – whether it’s gardening, washing the dishes, going for a walk around the block or, like Zahoor who has Type 2 diabetes, having a dance party in your living room. Exercise doesn’t just mean going to the gym. We’ve partnered with Sport England and 14 other charities for We Are Undefeatable, and we’re sharing lots of ideas if you’re looking to try something new.
