Diabetes Book & Learn Service

The Diabetes Book & Learn service is how people in south London with Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes access diabetes courses.

Across South London, records show that approximately 300,000 people have diabetes, and this is growing significantly every year. With traditional attendance rates for diabetes education lower than 10%, the South London Integrated Care Boards have continued to fund this service, which is designed to increase uptake of education services.
