Education materials
Purpose of this page is to share information that you can use to help explain to other people such as friends, family, colleagues and classmates what Type 1 Diabetes is.
DigiBete
DigiBete is a video platform to share videos and educational resources about Type 1 Diabetes. The content is designed to help support children, young people and families self manage their own diabetes by extending the reach of clinical teams online. We aim to increase Education, Awareness and Training for Type 1 but we are not a substitute for your own diabetes specialist HCPs.
We are proud to be a true collaboration between a clinical team and a parent led initiative. The creation of this site together is a reflection of the wider values of Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust:
We are patient centred – this site is for all children, young people and families living with diabetes. The content of the site will evolve in response to patients’ requests
