A support group for children with diabetes is marking the 90th anniversary of using insulin to treat the illness by raising awareness of the condition.
The Mendip Support Group meets at the Children's Centre at Bishop Henderson School, Coleford, helping families who have children with Type 1 diabetes.
Mrs Collins said: "It seemed to be all of a sudden. Emma must have lost weight but we had not noticed. She was very lethargic, she lay on the settee and was drinking excessively to such an extent that her nappies were leaking through."
