Abstract

This project assists Diabetes UK in making decisions on the type of support people with diabetes currently need and how it should be provided. It also aims to digitalise originally face-to-face peer support groups for people with diabetes, not currently possible due to social/physical distancing measures. This will enable the continuity of mutual support networks.
