Diabetes UK, the leading UK diabetes charity, offers a unique service known as the Diabetes UK Careline. This is a service provided by Diabetes.org.uk, and not Diabetes.co.uk.

Diabetes UK Careline provides support and information to people with diabetes as well as friends, family and carers.

We can provide information to help you learn more about the condition and how to manage it.

The Careline is staffed by trained counsellors who can provide a listening ear and the time to talk things through.

Diabetes UK Careline Scotland

Diabetes UK has extended its telephone Careline service to a new base in Glasgow.

This is to meet the growing need for information as ever increasing numbers of people are diagnosed with diabetes in Scotland .
