We are delighted to share the launch of the results of UNBIASED, a national Diabetes UK funded study , a major milestone in our collective effort to address ongoing inequities in access to diabetes technologies in the UK

As highlighted in the attached flyer, the study demonstrates that despite national guidance, for more than a decade, children from ethnic minority and lower socioeconomic backgrounds are still less likely to access life-changing diabetes technologies, with clear implications for health outcomes. This study, reinforces the collaborative leadership needed in addressing health inequalities in the UK and driving meaningful change in diabetes care.

The resources are freely available here at the official Diabetes UK website
https://diabetes.org.uk/unbiased with key recommendations, resources and videos for families and healthcare professionals

We would be very grateful for your support in helping us amplify this important work. Please could you:

• Repost/post and share the launch across your professional and social media networks

• Circulate within your teams, institutions, and relevant stakeholder groups , diabetes peer and parent groups

• Highlight the resources to clinicians, commissioners, and families where appropriate

UNBIASED study was led by Chief Investigator Professor May Ng OBE at Edge Hill University and Mersey and West Lancashire Teaching Hospitals.
