💙 Diabetes Awareness Month & World Diabetes Day – 14 November

Supporting those with Diabetes.

Raising awareness, promoting prevention, and supporting those living with diabetes

Every November, we recognise Diabetes Awareness Month, a time dedicated to raising understanding about diabetes, its prevention, and the importance of early detection. The focus of this year’s campaign builds toward World Diabetes

Day on 14 November, the birthday of Sir Frederick Banting, one of the scientists who co-discovered insulin 💉 — a discovery that has transformed millions of lives around the world.

🌍 Why Diabetes Awareness Matters

Diabetes is one of the fastest-growing health challenges globally. According to Diabetes UK, more than 5 million people are living with diabetes in the UK alone — and around 850,000 of them remain undiagnosed. Early awareness, healthy lifestyle choices, and regular check-ups can make a real difference in preventing or managing the condition.

For those living with diabetes, especially people who are older or have complex health needs, specialist care and daily support are key to maintaining health, safety, and quality of life.

💚 Supporting People Living with Diabetes

At ENA Care Group, we understand that diabetes management involves more than just medication — it’s about empowering individuals to live independently and confidently. Our trained carers support clients with:

✅ Blood glucose monitoring and recording

✅ Medication administration.

✅ Nutritional planning and meal preparation

✅ Foot care and skin integrity monitoring

✅ Regular exercise routines and lifestyle support

✅ Coordinating with GPs, dietitians, and diabetes nurses
