2013 will be another busy year so here are a few key dates for your diary:
Diabetes Week: 9–16 June
This week will focus on awareness raising and fundraising focus. The theme will be Research.
Diabetes Big Event: 14 September – London
Building on last year’s successful trial event, an opportunity for people with diabetes to meet, network and find out the latest in Research, Healthcare provision and Campaigning – something for all ages and stages from the newly diagnosed to experienced.
Mass store cash collection weekend: 4–6 October
An opportunity to raise hundreds of thousands of pounds for diabetes across hundreds of locations around the UK. We will need 6–8,000 supporters, friends, family or volunteers for this exciting opportunity.
World Diabetes Day: 14 November
Last year we took the opportunity to launch our children’s campaign and achieved great coverage and support from volunteers, particularly our Diabetes Voices. This year we hope to do even more.
