Gloucestershire NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme

Gloucestershire NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme is a behaviour change programme where people can learn about, diet, physical activity and strategies to improve their overall health, all aimed at reducing their risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes.

Normally, people access the programme through their GP however, due to the pandemic and the subsequent pressure that our GP practices are facing, for a limited time a self-referral option has been enabled via the Diabetes UK 'Know Your Risk Score' – a check list of questions that can determine a person's risk factors.

The risk tool can be accessed via the link below:
