Have you recently been diagnosed or are you living with type 2 diabetes and would benefit from healthy lifestyle support to better manage your diabetes?
Knowing about diabetes is key to managing your diabetes.
Having diabetes doesn't have to rule your life. It can feel overwhelming, but no matter how long since your diagnosis, you can benefit from support and information.
Diabetes and You is a free course for people newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes run by Kernow Health. They have face-to-face local courses delivered with GP practices as well as a virtual option for those who cannot see us in person. There are also refresher courses for those living with type two diabetes who would benefit healthy lifestyle support to better manage their diabetes as well as the Diabetes in the Young course for people with early onset type 2 diabetes.
People who go on these courses often feel more confident about managing their diabetes, making healthier food choices, looking after themselves and meeting other people with diabetes. If you're supporting someone with diabetes, you can go along to a course with them.
