AN MP has given his backing to a charity as it aims to raise awareness about diabetes.
Easington MP Grahame Morris has given his support to Diabetes UK after it emerged that millions of people could be suffering from the condition without knowing it.
Diabetes UK estimates that there could be as many as seven million people in the UK at risk of developing diabetes, and is looking to raise awareness to try and cut out the risk.
If not treated properly, the condition can lead to complications such as amputations, blindness and strokes.
