Lots of people on the forum helpfully shared their experience of restrictions on test strips over the past couple of weeks, and I really wanted to thank you all as it's been a great help as we put together the Diabetes UK 'Testing Times' campaign on fair access to test strips.

The campaign is now fully launched, including a tool which allows people to share their experience and in some areas challenge the local health care authority if they have been refused test strips. I know @Bubbsie did this on her own, and had some success which she's shared on the forum, so is worth considering if you've faced problems.

You can find all the details on the 'Testing Times' campaign page on the Diabetes UK website but give me a shout if you have any other questions or thoughts.
