Five-time Olympic gold medallist Sir Steve Redgrave has opened a multi-million pound diabetes centre that brings together expertise in clinical research from Leicester?s Hospitals together with the world-class academic expertise of the University to tackle this growing health problem.
The Leicester Diabetes Centre, equipped with a bespoke exercise laboratory along with teaching and training facilities is one of the largest diabetes centres in Europe. After the opening Sir Steve said: ?I was blown away by the size of the whole place. When you live with diabetes you have to develop another sense - you always have to think about your blood sugar levels and most diabetics get into a rhythm and work out a very different lifestyle to other people. I?m glad the specialists have this new centre where they can help people with diabetes lead an ordinary life.?
