Type 1 Bootcamp
Your ultimate Type 1 Action Plan is here!

T1 Bootcamp is our brand-new type 1 masterclass, developed by the passionate team at the Family Centre. Delivered in a face-to-face setting, T1 Bootcamp supports you with a hands-on learning experience, alongside other people living with type 1.

 

The course provides you with the latest clinical advice and shows you how to put this advice into action, making the day to day living with type 1 easier to manage.  In addition to the best clinical advice, you'll hear from people living with type 1 about what it’s like to apply this advice in the real world, and benefit from the tips and tricks they've learned over their life with type 1.

 

Whether you embrace type 1 technology, are curious about switching to pumps or CGM, or prefer to manage with daily injections, T1 Bootcamp has you covered. The course is packed full of practical tips, tricks, and the latest advice that you need to know to take control of your diabetes management, so it doesn't take control of your life!
