It is estimated that 199,100 diabetics work within the UK construction industry. The illness presents great risks to daily life, with black outs, impaired vision, impaired balance and fatigue being some of the symptoms. Despite such risks, Diabetes UK claims that a recent survey of theirs shows the illness is not taken seriously in Britain.
We would like to thank the APS for having us at their yearly conference and to everyone who came to speak to us on the day. We had a great day talking to people about Diabetes Safety and how we can make the industry safer and save lives.
