YES Workshop - £20 incentive for young people!

The Diabetes team at Guys and St Thomas Hospital are running a YES (Youth Empowerment Skills) workshop for young people aged 14-19 with Type 1 diabetes, and have kindly invited young people under UCLH to join!

The YES Programme is a fun and interactive three day course designed specifically for young people (ages 14-19) living with diabetes.

Event Details:

• Dates: 18 to 20 February (Tuesday to Thursday)

• Time: 10:30 AM – 4:00 PM

• Location: Living Space Waterloo (1 Coral St, London SE1 7BE), just outside Waterloo East train station

The YES Programme is a fantastic opportunity for young people to learn more about managing their diabetes while connecting with peers who share similar experiences. Each day will feature engaging activities and informative sessions (breakfast and lunch are provided), culminating in an exciting trip to Borough Market for mini-golf and pizza! We are also offering a £20 voucher as an incentive for attending the full three days. 

We believe that this programme will not only provide valuable information but also create a supportive community for both the young participants and their families. They are also welcome to come with a friend or a sibling similar age to them.

For more details, please check out the video below and/or the attached flyer.

If you have any questions or if you are interested in joining, please email your diabetes team at uclh.cdorange@nhs.net.
