World Diabetes Day

World Diabetes Day is a global campaign that reaches over one billion people in over 160 countries. It is marked every year on 14 November, the birthday of Sir Frederick Banting, who co-discovered insulin along with Charles Best in 1922.

This year’s theme is Diabetes and Well-Being.

Together, we can make a difference!
