Hi Tracy
To apply for funding for CGM you need the support of your diabetes consultant, it requires some form filling and writing a statement of why/how you think a CGM would help you remain safe due to the loss of hypo awareness etc- at least this was how it worked pre CCGs. It isn't straightforward as there aren't any NICE guidelines for CGM use and has been said some areas don't fund them at all but if your CCG does consider funding and your team will support your request then it is worth a shot.
