We're demanding more funding for diabetes tech
Last week, we launched our new ‘Cheque for Tech’ campaign, which calls on the government to increase funding in diabetes technologies. As the pandemic continues to affect diabetes care, it’s more important than ever that people with diabetes can access the tech they need to help manage their diabetes more confidently at home. We know that using diabetes tech can make the world of difference in these uncertain times, and it’s clear this can't wait. Help make our voice louder - join us now to urge the government to sign our #ChequeForTech.
