Free type 1 diabetes technology event to be live streamed

A type 1 diabetes and technology conference being live streamed online so people from all round the world can access it. 

The Type 1 and Tech conference is free and has been organised in partnership with the Diabetes Research Unit Cymru,  the Diabetes UK Cymru and Swansea University and takes place on Saturday, November 9.

It aims to give people living with diabetes a greater understanding of the diverse technology available to them, how it might benefit them and how to access it.

Leading experts, healthcare professionals and people living with diabetes will discuss new devices, pioneering ideas and the array of technology currently available.

There will be sessions specifically on paediatric type 1 diabetes care, managing the condition during pregnancy, diabetes-related apps and the potential positive and negative impact of social media on mental health and life with the condition.

The event has seen a significant number of registrations, as well as international appeal this year, with hundreds of people from across the UK and as far afield as Spain, South Africa and Australia already registered to tune in online.
