Sutton & Carshalton Diabetes UK

On World Diabetes Day, we launched our Strike Out Stigma campaign 💙

Together, we kickstarted some vital conversations and challenged how diabetes is seen and understood.

Whether you live with diabetes, know someone who does, or have no connection at all, we’d love to hear what you thought of our ads.

We've put together a short survey that only takes five minutes. Please pass it on to friends, family, and your followers too!
