The NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme is a free programme for those who are at risk of developing Type 2 diabetes.  The current provider of the programme locally is Living Well Taking Control. The focus of help is to make positive changes to your diet, weight and physical activity to significantly reduce your risk of, or even stop you, developing Type 2 diabetes.

You can find out if you are at risk of developing Type 2 diabetes by:  Answering a few simple questions on the ‘Know Your Risk’ tool at www.diabetes.org.uk/risk or by asking your GP or Practice Nurse to check if you are at risk.  If you are at risk and would like to attend the NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme please ask your GP or Practice Nurse to refer you.
