We are a charity which was formed by people who live with diabetes, so we have experience and understanding of some of the day-to-day difficulties of living with the condition.

IDDT's newsletter offers clear, easily understandable information about many different aspects of living with diabetes.

The April, 2008, newsletter contains articles about different types of insulin and how people can make insulin work better for them, the relationship between coeliac disease and diabetes, the latest news about statins and the control of cholesterol levels, and much more.

We are happy to send your readers all this information free and we are always here with a listening ear to offer support and understanding.
