Hi, A few of our meet for a Saturday lunch - but we haven’t since lockdown. We will probably meet up when the weather is a bit better.

Usually in Glasgow city centre.

You would be more than welcome to join us.

I’ll let eggyg (Elaine) know as she usually organises things.

Oh that is brilliant thank you new to all this so I would love that

Hi @MichelleF78 it’s about time we started the meet ups again. @everydayupsanddowns coukd you please move this and @PhoebeC posts to General Message board as I think they’ll get more response.
We usually do a Saturday, meet 11.30ish in a local Wetherspoons, cheap and cheerful, eat, drink and chat about everything. It’s all very informal, I’ve been to Glasgow, Newcastle and Manchester.

 

[MichelleF78]

Great thanks look forward to it. Keep me posted. New to all this and struggling

Or any support groups going?

There’s a page to search for any local groups that may run locally to you here:

Local support groups

If you or a family member has diabetes, it's often helpful to meet other people who are going through the same thing at our diabetes support groups.

Yes I did search for local groups, none local to me. When I retire from rugby, maybe after next season I will definitely be interested in starting a group, but I’ve too much on with that at the moment.
