Welcome To Diabetes Guernsey
Diabetes Guernsey is a local charity which aims to help people to ‘live well’ with diabetes. We aim to support people with all types of diabetes and their families in the Bailiwick of Guernsey.
Our purpose is to ensure that local people with diabetes and their families have support, that we raise awareness of diabetes and provide education for everyone.
Diabetes Guernsey aims to raise the funds needed to achieve these goals through various events.
There are approximately 3,500 people living with Diabetes in Guernsey. 500 people have Type 1 Diabetes and 3,000 people are living with Type 2 Diabetes.
Living with diabetes can be hard work, and being able to discuss diabetes related issues with someone who really understands is vital.
Diabetes Guernsey arranges events for children and young people along with their families and different events for adults.
Events are held throughout the year. If you would like to be part of these events, please contact us so we can add you to our membership list.
The Diabetes Nursing Specialist Team are always on hand to offer medical advice and support. If you are concerned about your health or medication, please contact them directly. Diabetes Guernsey is run by volunteers not health professionals and therefore, we cannot give medical advice.
