Diabetes meetings progressing with the next on May 5th with a view to mounting a Diabetes awareness initiative at the Blakesley Show in August. We now have the support of Diabetes UK / East Midlands / and Daventry branch. They will have an adjacent stand to us at the show in order that we can work together.
