Hello

I was just wondering is the Blue Circle the official logo?? Just wondering because I am getting a tattoo on my wrist with the word "Diabetic" and was going to get the little circle too?!

Hi NicolaAnne1994,
The blue circle was introduced as the international symbol for diabetes by the IDF (the international diabetes federation) back in 2006. I think you'll be pretty safe with that remaining true, but most importantly get a tattoo that you really love the look of.

Do Blue Circle cement have this registered already ?

Oops! OK my apologies. I'll add a note to my original post then.

As an alternative, Google Images has a great selection of diabetic tattoos (ranging from a cute diabetic kitty through various medical symbols to a lovely hybrid butterfly) which may be helpful. My favourite however is this evil penguin who gave me a much needed laugh:
