Structured Education

Structured education programmes can help adults with Type II Diabetes to improve their knowledge and skills and also help to motivate them to take control of their condition and self-manage it effectively.

"I can permanently reverse type 2 diabetes"

We work in partnership with X-PERT Health to provide structured education courses for people diagnosed with Type II Diabetes.

This support is essential and in order to ensure the safety and health of our participants and tutors we are working in new ways to offer this support, such as group video sessions and online courses. If you would like to know more, then please contact us.

"My diabetes can be improved and lived with”.

"I have reached partial reversal of diabetes with more exercise and lower carbs"

Following a recent course in North West Surrey, a GP wrote to a course participant, stating, "... you are not diabetic (and) you fall under the pre-diabetic-category…"
