The team are delighted to be able to offer these sessions again this year for the parents of children newly diagnosed within the previous 12 months.
The JETF financially supports the venue and refreshment costs and we know that parents find the sessions really helpful. A set of 5 or 6 sessions are co-facilitated by the Team psychologist and either a children’s diabetes specialist nurse or a consultant paediatrician, according to the content requested by attending parents.
The sessions run for 1-2 hours, every 2 weeks, early evening and have been incredibly well evaluated by parents. This year’s sessions are running as we speak.
