A DIABETES charity is looking for volunteers to help find the 1,900 people in Swindon whose health is threatened by undiagnosed Type 2 diabetes.

The charity is recruiting volunteers to assess members of the public for their risk of having or developing the condition.

Diabetes can lead to health complications including heart disease, stroke, kidney failure, blindness and amputation. Half of people with Type 2 diabetes will show signs of some of these complications by the time they are diagnosed.
