The Living with Diabetes Day is being organised by Diabetes UK Northern and Yorkshire in order to provide information and inspiration for people with diabetes, their carers, parents, relatives and partners.

The Free event takes place between 10am ? 4pm on Saturday 9 June at The Park Inn, York.

The volunteer session is from 10am-12.30pm when people can find out more and will have the chance to network with existing volunteers.

Lunch and refreshments will be available from 12.30pm.

The afternoon session is focused on life with diabetes. From 1.15pm there will be help and advice from healthcare professionals and experts on diabetes.

There are three workshops available:
