Diabetes Awareness

Almost 700,000 people living with diabetes experience a mental or emotional health challenge every year.

In addition, many people living with diabetes experience shame due to misinformation and misconceptions about diabetes.

Between the 10th and 16th of July was National Diabetes Week. Here at Workers Blacktown, we invited Western Sydney Diabetes to set up shop inside the Club to spread awareness and help people understand the ins and outs of what diabetes is all about.

This is the 3rd year of ‘Heads Up Diabetes’ National Diabetes Week campaign. It was the Club’s goal to help reduce the burden with more compassion, reduce the blame with more understanding and help the people of Western Sydney get support.
