What Have You Got to Lose?
Diabetes Jersey
Over 4,000 people in Jersey have Diabetes. 90% of those have Type 2, which can be avoided with a healthy lifestyle.
Diabetes is serious and can lead to amputation, sight loss and kidney failure. ‘What Have You Got to Lose?’ campaign brings these facts to the surface to shock people into the reality of untreated Diabetes.
We teamed up with the Co-op Pharmacy Locale to provide free Type 2 Diabetes testing for World Diabetes Day to help combat this growing issue.
The day had a successful turnout, with over 360 people being tested on the day, 10% of those tested positive for Diabetes.
