Type 2 Diabetes Prevention Week 2025 Toolkit

Type 2 Diabetes Prevention Week is a joint campaign from NHS England and Diabetes UK that takes place 26 May – 1 June 2025.

The campaign aims to raise awareness of type 2 diabetes, how to prevent it, the complication risks and the groups at high-risk of developing the condition.

It will encourage the public to check their risk via the Diabetes UK Know Your Risk tool or, for those with a history of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM), to self-refer to the Healthier You NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme.

The campaign also encourages healthcare professionals to refer eligible people to the Healthier You NHS Diabetes Prevention Programme – an evidence-based lifestyle change programme which helps people at risk of type 2 diabetes to reduce their risk through managing their weight, eating more healthily and being more physically active.
