Many thanks to all those who came along to Foodlands Mall on Wednesday 21 August to participate in a free diabetes screening activity. Thanks to Foodlands Mall for allowing us to provide this service and thanks to Dr Clive Bishop (GP)and Allyson Taylor (visiting Credentialled Diabetes Educator) for joining Karen Innes-Walker (Dietitian-Nutritionist) and Marguerite Bender from NI Lion’s Club who provided free tasting packs of healthy, Mediterranean lifestyle friendly almonds. Over 30 people had their blood sugar level, blood pressure and body mass index measured and also picked up some useful brochures on diabetes. We hope to do this again when Allyson is visiting again. Below are some photos of the session.
