A Walk in the Park for Diabetes Awareness

29 June 2017

On Wednesday, 14th June, the Ribble Valley Diabetes UK group took their message of raising awareness of diabetes to Clitheroe park.  Organised by Tracy Balko and her team from Up and Active, members of the group walked around the park, handing out information leaflets and chatting to people about this life-long chronic condition and how to manage it.  

Exercise and diet was the key message: keep moving and eat a healthy diet to limit your risk of diabetes and/or limit your risk of developing the complications of diabetes!

The Ribble Valley Diabetes UK group meets every second Monday in the month at the Clitheroe Rugby Club at 7.30p.m.  The next meeting is on 10th July and is about “Diet and Type2 Remission”.  Anyone interested is welcome!
