Today we join the global community in recognising World Diabetes Day, marked every year on 14 November, the birthday of Sir Frederick Banting, who, along with Charles Best, co-discovered insulin in 1922.

This day serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of awareness, prevention, and early detection.

For those living with diabetes, attending your Diabetic Eye Screening is one of the best ways to protect your vision and overall health. Regular screening can help detect early changes before they affect your sight.

Today, we’ll be with the amazing Diabetes UK Volunteers at Tesco Winnall, talking to the public about diabetes and looking after your eyes. Come and say hello!

Together, we can make a difference through education, support, and action. 💙
