November 14 is World Diabetes Day

Diabetes can impact anyone at any age, and often develops silently. This year’s focus is Diabetes in the Workplace.

𝗗𝗶𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄?
👉 7 in 10 people with diabetes are of working age
👉 3 in 4 report facing mental health challenges related to their condition
👉 Up to 50% of people with diabetes remain undiagnosed

Diabetes awareness is essential; understanding and support should extend to where most of us spend our time: 𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸.

Common symptoms can include:
👉 Feeling more tired than usual
👉 Increased thirst or hunger
👉 Frequent urination
👉 Blurred vision
👉 Slow-healing cuts or infections
👉 Unexplained weight loss (Type 1 diabetes) or weight gain (Type 2 diabetes)

If you or someone you know is experiencing these symptoms, don’t wait — book an appointment with your GP.

Early detection means better management and fewer complications.

If you have been diagnosed with diabetes (or another ongoing condition), speak with your GP about a Chronic Condition Care Plan. This can help coordinate and manage your chronic conditions, such as diabetes.

Let’s work together to raise awareness, offer support, and make every workplace a place where people with diabetes can thrive.

Movember is here, which means by now you’ve probably seen the moustaches… but this month isn’t about the mo on your face — it’s about the men in your life.

Every year, Movember starts millions of conversations and raises funds for men’s health, tackling some of the biggest issues facing men today:
💙 Mental health and su***de prevention
💙 Prostate cancer
💙 Testicular cancer

Statistics show that men are less likely to talk about their health, less likely to see a doctor early, and more likely to lose their lives to preventable causes.

This month, take the time to:
💙 Check in with the men in your life — a simple “How are you going?” can mean more than you realise.
💙 Schedule your health checks — early detection can save lives.
💙 Donate at https://au.movember.com/donate/

Let’s make it normal for men to talk, seek help, and prioritise their wellbeing — so they can live longer, healthier, and happier lives.
