DRWF Events: United Through Diabetes programme 2026
Our annual educational event programme for 2026 is taking shape – so here are some dates for the diary. We hope you can join us for events taking place online and in person throughout the year!
Following on from our hugely successful United Through Diabetes events launched in 2023, we are excited to continue and evolve our educational programme with even more content for you to access, learn and empower you in your diabetes management.
There are plenty more events lined up for 2026 – both in person and online. Read on for more dates and information.
Inform. Inspire. Empower.
At the heart of this year’s United Through Diabetes educational event programme is an online series of webinars with the title Diabetes – A Whole Life Blueprint.
The aim of these events will be to provide a lifelong roadmap for integrated health, wellbeing, and diabetes management at every stage of the journey.
We will invite supporters to take a deep dive into the nuances of life’s journey and managing diabetes and overall health effectively in all stages and aspects of life.
Taking a softer, more holistic and inspirational approach while still providing key clinical messages and positive outcomes. Focusing on the shared lived experience and power of the diabetes community. Creating chapters covering the entire human experience from birth to the golden years. Focusing on the “diabetes journey” to make what may be perceived as a clinical subject feel personal, supportive, holistic and a story of health and wellbeing for everyone.
The event is set to feature six webinars on various aspects of living with diabetes scheduled throughout the year and repeated at key times.
Featured subjects include:
• Foundations and the Path to Independence
• The Rhythm of Womanhood
• The Strength to Speak Out
• The Heart of Wellbeing
• Purpose and the Professional World
• The Wisdom of Ageing Well
More details available soon.
We will be confirming more dates and adding more details throughout 2026 so keep checking the DRWF events page for updates when available.
