So VERY IMPORTANT

💥 Empowering Schools to Support Pupils with Type 1 Diabetes 💥

Managing type 1 diabetes is a 24/7 job, with many decisions starting before the school day even begins. That's why Together Type 1 have teamed up with DigiBete, Breakthrough T1D UK, the nhs.uk Children and Young People’s Network, and our incredible Young Leaders to co-create a refreshed, clinically-led, and truly accessible training platform for school staff.

The schools platform gives teachers and school staff the tools they need to truly understand and support pupils with type 1 diabetes. This includes:
✅ Real stories from the community
✅ Clinically approved content
✅ Flexible, bite-sized learning
