Diabetes Residential Weekend

Diabetes Residential Weekend

Young people learning to manage a diagnosis of diabetes can sometimes feel isolated; not knowing anyone else with the condition to talk to about their experiences.

This is why the Diabetes Team at Worthing Hospital run an annual weekend residential trip for around 30 young people in this position.

The weekend, based in an activity centre near Chichester, brings these young people together and helps them to realised they aren’t alone. They have a chance to learn from each other, make or re-kindle friendships and build confidence through a series of fun activities.

This is a great project that really helps these young people learn how to manage their condition both now, and for the future.
