The Diabetes Research & Wellness Foundation and specialist diabetes team from the North Tees and Hartlepool NHS Foundation Trust are pleased to announce that we will be working together again in 2012 to put on another one of our popular and successful Diabetes Wellness Days.
The Diabetes Wellness Day will take place on Saturday, 17th November to coincide with World Diabetes Day which is happening on Wednesday, 14th. We have decided to revisit Hartlepool?s Maritime Experience again for this venue again because of its ideal position outside the city centre and its closeness to all of the major transport links.
Registration will begin at 9am and the talks and activities will start at 10am. The day will conclude at around 4 pm.
Once again, there will be an opportunity to listen into a variety of talks on different aspects of diabetes delivered by local diabetes healthcare professionals. This year we will be covering some completely new subjects, including diet and nutrition, diabetes and exercising safely, a discussion on the different types of diabetes, the 90th anniversary of insulin and the future of diabetes and we?ll finish the day with an ?Ask the Panel? session where you will get the chance to put your questions to the visiting diabetes experts.
There will be an exhibition area, where you will have the chance to visit and speak with a variety of representatives from the different diagnostic companies, charities and local organisations about the latest blood-glucose monitors and diabetes related products and services. You will also be able to speak to experts from the local diabetes healthcare teams, the retinal screening service, the diabetic podiatry service and other groups such as the Expert Patient Programme and many other support groups.
As always, and in pursuit of our educational aims DRWF are happy to subsidise this day for those attending. However we do ask for a small registration fee of ?5 per person to help us with some of the running costs.
Your ?5 will include the following -
? The full day?s educational programme
? The exhibitor area
? Registration tea, coffee and refreshments
? A second tea break with hot and cold refreshments and a selection of biscuits
? Lunch of hot baked potatoes, with a choice of hot and cold healthy fillings, rice and curry or chilli, refreshments
? Free all day parking
? Concession to the maritime experience (time permitting)
