World Diabetes Day was created in 1991 by the International Diabetes Federation and the World Health Organization in response to growing concerns about the escalating health threat posed by diabetes. It’s now the world’s largest diabetes awareness campaign.
It’s held every year on the 14 November to mark the birthday of Sir Frederick Banting, who discovered insulin along with Charles Best in 1922.
