Monthly Meetings
We hold meetings on the evening of the third Thursday of each month. This is your chance to meet other people with diabetes in a friendly, welcoming environment. We invite speakers to come and talk to us and they are always willing to answer your questions, which you can send to us in advance (we won't use your name without your permission), or ask on the day. Throughout the year we try to cover a range of aspects of diabetes, and always welcome suggestions for topics.
Meetings are held at Norfolk Chambers, 11 Norfolk Row in Sheffield city centre (see details below) :
Doors open 7 p.m Speaker, followed by questions: 7.15 - 9 p.m.
We also provide facilities to join via Zoom for those who cannot attend in person
