DB12Run is a free jogging/running/walking group for people with diabetes or a medical condition or for someone who would just like to get a little bit more active and make some new friends.
There are other groups out there in the Lanarkshire area but this is a group not about times or pace, it is a group for people who would like to be more active and fitter working on the most important person in the world – you!
This is a free event every Saturday at 0845 at Strathclyde park, Hamilton.
For more information please contact Christopher Gray on 07941480417 or check out the website https://db12run.wordpress.com/

The SDRN Primary Care Initiative (PCI) has won the prestigious Diabetes UK (DUK) Primary Care Award at DUK Professional Conference 2015.
The PCI works to increase capacity for diabetes research in primary care and involves Diabetes Specialist Research Nurses working in General Practice to run studies. The PCI achieves a range of benefits including:
Giving patients more opportunities to participate in research
Allowing practices to be involved in research with little call on existing resources
Enhanced capacity (complementing research in secondary care)
Allowing for access to different patient populations
Opportunities for additional income streams for GPs and community pharmacists to become involved in clinical research

The University of Dundee Quality Diabetes Care programme (MSc, PGDip or PGCert) will run for the first time from September 2014. It will be of interest to doctors, nurses, pharmacists, dieticians, podiatrists working in diabetes care. It will equip participants with skills for evidence based management of diabetes, and offer practical experience in organisational management, reflective practice and quality improvement.
