Raising Awareness
Type 1 diabetes is an auto-immune condition in which the body’s own immune system attacks the cells in the pancreas which produce insulin. We do not know what causes type 1 diabetes although it is not linked to lifestyle factors. There is currently no cure, and it cannot be prevented.
Lochlan’s Legacy have partnered with DigiBete to share key resources to help raise awareness of the signs and symptoms of type 1 diabetes.
DigiBete is a video platform to share videos and educational resources about Type 1 Diabetes. The content is designed to help support children, young people and families self-manage their own diabetes by extending the reach of clinical teams online. They aim to increase Education, Awareness and Training for Type 1 but we are not a substitute for your own diabetes specialist HCPs.
