Real strategies for real life with type 1

T1 Bootcamp Curriculum
Day 1: We deep dive into the core of type 1 diabetes management; insulin, carbohydrate counting and how to tailor insulin doses to match your meals. We’ll make sure you have the essential info to manage insulin and food with confidence.
Day 2: We take what you have learnt week 1 and translate it into real life. Whether it is exercising without a hypo, eating out without a blood glucose tsunami, or having a glass or two of wine without fear, you will graduate Bootcamp feeling more competent and confident!
Cost
T1 Bootcamp costs $200. It is suitable for ages 16+. Your support person can join you free!
