Diabetes UK lobby Parliament

Diabetes UK lobbied parliament with an army of over 200 young diabetics. Over 100 MPs agreed to meet the children and their parents in order to discuss diabetes and the care for young diabetics within the UK educational system.

The day also allowed children meet others their age with the condition and share experiences. A range of games and activities kept everyone entertained from start to finish.

I attended the event in order to send out the Diabetes UK ‘Bendy Bus’ video (via a Nitro Mobile bluetooth hub) and assist with documenting the day.
