Navigating the Jungle of Diabetes

A diagnosis marks the start of an unexpected journey. This border reflects the path many take as they enter the dense jungle of diabetes, a world that can feel confusing and overwhelming. The bold planting mirrors the process of learning, adapting, and building new routines. Along the way, signposts for Knowledge, Support, and Hope highlight guidance from healthcare teams, loved ones, and lived experience. The shelter at the end symbolises clarity and confidence - a place where self-management comes together and life feels steadier again. Sponsored by Diabetes UK, this border celebrates resilience, empowerment, and the belief that no one has to navigate the journey alone.
