HILLINGDON families with a child or young person living with diabetes can tap into a new hospital resource.
The Children and Young People with Diabetes team at Hillingdon Hospital have posted a series of videos, to provide information and reassurance to them.
The videos cover all aspects of diabetes, from the initial diagnosis and the impact it has on a family, to managing the condition daily, school life and even how families can get involved in fund-raising.

They were recorded at Hillingdon Hospital, in schools and at the annual get-together for families on World Diabetes Day, held at Brunel University.
