🩵 World Diabetes Day – 14 November 2025 🩵
This year’s theme, “Diabetes and well-being”, shines a spotlight on "Diabetes and the workplace," recognising that with the right access to care and well-being support, everyone living with diabetes can flourish.
Why this day matters:
Marking the birthday of Sir Frederick Banting, co-discoverer of insulin in 1922, it draws attention to the ongoing fight against diabetes.
It stands as the largest global diabetes awareness campaign, reaching over 1 billion people across more than 160 countries.
Statistics reveal that 7 in 10 people with diabetes are of working age, and many face challenges related to stigma, anxiety, or exclusion at work.
