Last chance to register for Hypo Awareness Week 2025
Hypo Awareness Week 2025 has been funded by Sanofi and embecta, who have had no input into any arrangements or content.
There is still time to register for Hypo Awareness Week 2025 which will be held from the 6 to 12 October.
The popular campaign aims to raise awareness of the dangers of hypoglycaemia among registered healthcare professionals from across the UK and Ireland.
Hypoglycaemia remains a significant concern for people living with diabetes and for those admitted to hospital, where it is linked with higher rates of complications and poorer outcomes.
Every year, thousands of people living with diabetes experience hypoglycaemia or “hypos”, when blood glucose levels fall too low. Without prompt recognition and treatment, hypos can lead to serious complications and even become life-threatening.
Last year nearly 400 healthcare sites took part in Hypo Awareness Week, taking part in events and activities designed to raise knowledge and improve care standards across staff working in primary and secondary care.
Emily Mayhew, event manger said: “Hypo Awareness Week offers an essential platform for all healthcare professionals involved in diabetes care to come together and learn.
“By taking part you will play a vital role in helping colleagues recognise and respond to hypos quickly, ensuring safer care for people living with diabetes in all settings.”
As part of the campaign free printed and digital resources are available to all registered sites to help teams plan and deliver local campaigns. To sign up just complete the form linked below:
