We would appreciate any comments you may have about the activities of SuffDIG or the information on this website. Please use our Feedback form.
The SuffDig open meeting held in June 2007 at the Athenaeum, Bury St Edmunds.
The Suffolk Diabetes Interest Group (SuffDIG) was founded in late 2006 by Nishan Wijenaike, Liz Hartley, John Hines and Olivia Posner. The aim was to bring together a group of people, those who have diabetes or family members with diabetes as well as healthcare professionals who share a common goal of improving Diabetes services in Suffolk. We are particularly interested in enrolling people who are enthusiastic about improving local services and who are willing to sacrifice some of their spare time in order to do so. You do not necessarily need to have Diabetes in order to join.
Please download the SuffDIG leaflet for more information.
This website is a companion site to www.diabeteSuffolk.com, a website providing information and advice for people with diabetes.
The aims and objectives of SuffDIG are:
1. The promotion and protection of the health of people with diabetes in Suffolk, through the provision of support, education and practical advice both in local surgeries and hospitals;
and
2. To advance the education of the general public in Suffolk relating to diabetes.
