This week is Insulin Safety Week 2026!
In Torbay and South Devon, diabetes affects many people in our community. Around 13,000–16,700 people are living with diabetes and type 2 diabetes makes up over 90% of cases.
Our teams support all inpatients with diabetes and run daily clinics, caring for around 150 people every week — including those with type 1, type 2, gestational diabetes, and people using insulin pumps.
This week is all about helping everyone feel safer and more confident when using insulin. By learning more and working together, we can help reduce mistakes and improve care for people living with diabetes.
