Diabetes Awareness Week 3

November is Diabetes Awareness month. We have some information on how to deal with Hypos (when blood glucose level gets too low) – what they are, how to recognise one and what to do if someone is having one.

There is a presentation with a short video for you to watch.  Click here

Or email: gbcommunicationsandpublicaffairs@cemex.com if you cannot access it and would like to.  It only takes a few minutes to watch. One suggestion at the end is to have a diabetic emergency response kit on site. This might be something you and your team think is a good idea if you don’t already have one.

Please use this to talk to your teams about diabetes – the signs and how to look after yourselves and each other.  To find out more go to: www.diabetes.org.uk
