DAFNE waiting list

[lynbrown]

I live in Edinburgh and feel my diabetes is well looked after and I have no complaints. However, I asked this week if I could go on a DAFNE course to help me control my diet and was told my name would go on the list and it would be 2016 before I was called!

Crikey, that's a bit mad! Did they say why the list was so long? Or if you can be referred further afield (if you are willing to travel) to do the course sooner?
