“For many people living with type 1 diabetes, technology is part of everyday life. Having choice really matters. Everyone's experience of diabetes is different, and what works brilliantly for one person may not be right for another. We welcome developments that give people more options and greater flexibility in how they manage their condition, allowing them to choose technology that fits their individual needs, preferences and lives.”
What Hilary Nathan has said
“The UK is rightly being recognised as a global leader in the rollout of hybrid closed-loop systems for people living with type 1 diabetes, reflecting years of research, advocacy and leadership from people with lived experience. The priority now is to ensure equitable access across all four nations of the UK, so that everyone has a genuine choice of the technology that suits them when they need it and so the benefits of innovation are felt fairly across every community, with no one left behind.”
