[QUOTE="jharding, post: 1248439, member: 325103"] One other thing to consider; check out [URL]https://www.diabetes.org.uk/How_we_help/Local_support_groups/[/URL] We are a member of (our local paediatric support group. Basically once a month, we meet at a village hall and the kids do an activity (chocolate moulds, games night, science experiments) and the adults have chat, tea and biscuit, etc. It's free to attend, and we put in a quid or two for the drinks. Diabetes UK I believe, give it some support. But basically, it's around 30-40 families with diabetic kids and about half turn up any week. The shared experience and knowledge in that room is vast. I would imagine, that your query about intensive sports could be answered in one of our support group sessions and the children range from six to sixteen: I know some of the teenagers meet outside the group too. I don't know what the groups are like in your area, but it might pay to have a look! :-) John [/QUOTE]
