The North Central Community Centre in Regina held a diabetes forum last night.
The workshop provided information about diabetes to the community.
Doreen Lloyd is a host for the forum, and she says many people are misinformed about diabetes.
She says it’s important to bring awareness to the issue, and to educate people about it.
“Diabetes is growing amongst our population, with the young and the elderly, and it’s important to bring awareness — to make sure that people are taking care of themselves medically, and learning to eat well and exercise and all those kinds of wonderful things,” Lloyd says.
More than 300 people attended the forum.
