Overview

One of our dietitians, in collaboration with her PCN, organised a Prediabetes Workshop to help patients reduce their risk of developing type 2 diabetes.

This workshop was designed to help patients at high risk of developing type 2 diabetes take practical steps to improve their health and prevent progression of the condition.

This workshop was run for patients referred by their GP following routine health checks and blood tests that indicated a HbA1c in the prediabetes range.

Our Impact – Recent Workshop

  • 30 patients attended a 60-minute group session
  • 100% reported increased understanding of prediabetes and how to prevent type 2 diabetes
  • 93% left with at least two personal action points to implement immediately
  • 87% felt more confident in making healthier food and lifestyle choices
  • 80% planned to increase their physical activity within the next week

The Workshop

The workshop was organised and run by a PCN, in collaboration with other healthcare professionals including health coaches, the GP and the dietitian.

It covered the following points:

  • Evidence-based content – Understanding what prediabetes means, the role of diet and activity, and how small changes can have a big impact.
  • Interactive format – Live food label reading, portion size demonstrations, and myth-busting Q&A.
  • Behaviour change focus – Goal setting and problem-solving to help patients overcome barriers.
