Black, Asian, & Minority Ethnic communities (BAME)
We have developed this section specifically to help our BAME communities find the right resources both quickly and easily.
Diabetes impacts the BAME communities at a higher rate so we want to offer support and guidance that you can more closely relate to and help you to better manage your diabetes condition.
WHY?
Type 2 diabetes is up to six times more likely to develop in someone from an African, Asian, Arab or other ethnic minority groups than someone from the general white British population. Risk factors include age, weight, and family history.
