sussex, tell your mp that diabetes tech can't wait

Diabetes can be a relentless stream of numbers – but with the right tech, keeping on top of them doesn’t have to feel like such a battle. And that can be life-changing. 

Nearly 2 years ago, national guidance recommended making continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and flash glucose monitoring available for everyone living with type 1 diabetes and some people living with type 2 diabetes.  

But many people living in Sussex still don’t have access to this tech. 

There’s no access for people living with type 2 diabetes, and those living with type 1 diabetes aren’t able to choose which device works best for them. Together we can change this. 

Will you take 5 minutes to share your experience of accessing or trying to access diabetes tech with your MP and ask them to write to health decision-makers in your area on your behalf?
