Diabetes afflicts more people in the U.K. than any other serious health condition.
One in 15 people in the UK have diabetes, including one million people who have type 2, but haven't been diagnosed.
Diabetes can have serious, long term health impacts so it is important to be aware of the disease, the risk factors and how to manage the condition.
Around 8% of people in the UK have Type 1 diabetes and while it is not preventable it is manageable.
Type 2 diabetes is preventable in the majority of cases. Changes to lifestyles and diet can help prevent it along with the risk of serious complications that can come with it.
