I was curious too and Googled it. It’s Whittington Insulin Dosing For Active Living!
WOW.....I would never have figured that one out. I was trying different wordings but no where near.I was curious too and Googled it. It’s Whittington Insulin Dosing For Active Living!

I went on the DAFID (?) around 10 years agao. Believe its called the DAFNE now. Learned soo much, mind you i needed it
This month we're taking a look at structured diabetes education courses in the UK and how well they work.
Have you taken one since you were diagnosed? If so, how helpful did you find it, if at all?
If you haven't taken any courses - is that because you've never been offered a place, or because you just felt like you didn't need it?
Would you recommend the course(s) to any of your friends if they were to get diagnosed with diabetes?
I went on the DESMOND about 9 weeks post diagnosis. Can't say it was helpful as full of outdated dietary advice and a bit simplistic, though i guess it is hard to pitch it at a suitable level as a wide range of ages and abilities, both physically and mentally, attended mine.
