A CAMPAIGN to tackle diabetes in Bradford has identified nearly 800 more people with the condition in its first year.
The Bradford Beating Diabetes (BBD) scheme, started by NHS Bradford City Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) 12 months ago, has been hailed a success.
There are more than 7,500 diabetic patients in the city with an extra 5,700 people at moderate or high risk of developing the most common type of diabetes, Type 2.
Many of the 800 patients who have been newly-diagnosed over the past 12 months have been enrolled on Intensive Lifestyle Change Programme (ILCP) sessions, run by specially-trained BBD Champions.
