This is a prevention programme, designed to alert people who are in the pre-diabetes stage, from going on to develop type 2 diabetes. This has been developed by the team here in Bexley and will be piloted over the next few months.  Following the pilot we will decide how to further this course.  For more information on the MAP to health programme click here.
