Travel With Diabetes Webinar
Travel With Diabetes Webinar
We hosted a special holiday edition of our UTD webinar series, where we discussed everything you need to know about travelling safely with diabetes.
We were joined by Dr Mayank Patel and Diabetes Clinical Nurse Specialist Meghan Boyes, who discussed everything you need to know if you're planning to go on holiday this summer.
Thank You Dexcom
A big thank you to our United Through Diabetes sponsor Dexcom.
Dexcom have spent the last 20 years innovating and developing simpler and better ways for people with type 1 diabetes to measure, track and manage their diabetes.
We have put together a Diabetes Travellers Checklist card, which will help you plan for a safe and enjoyable travel experience. It is great for recording important information and fits neatly into your purse, wallet or passport holder.

Hot Weather And Diabetes
If you're off on a sunny holiday this year, this guide will explain how you can manage diabetes during hot weather when out in the sun.
We've asked Dr Mayank Patel, Consultant Physician in Diabetes University Hospital Southampton NHS Foundation Trust and DRWF Editorial Advisory Board member, to provide some tips for people to better manage diabetes in hot weather.
Travelling With Diabetes
Travelling with diabetes means that we have more to think about before embarking on our journey. Being prepared well in advance of travel is key to a safe, healthy and happy experience.
Here is our guidance on how to plan for that long-awaited-trip, whether hot or cold, by air, sea, rail or road. We hope this guide will help you as you embark on your next adventure.
