On 8th October 2012, Diabetes Awareness Day was jointly organized by CHIC and Diabetes UK. This health day was aimed at the Chinese community to raise diabetes awareness and how to prevent it. We were honoured to have a team of diabetes specialist nurses from Wythenshawe hospital to give health talks on diabetes’ complications and healthy eating in English. Interpretation was provided by CHIC. This event was very successful, and has achieved the purpose of the event. This event was jointly organized by the British Diabetes Association, many thanks to the volunteers for their assistance.
