People living with type two diabetes, accompanied by family members, are invited to attend a revolutionary, free, one day award-winning diabetes program, hosted by Diabetes Help Tauranga starting January 2018.

The DESMOND program, short for Diabetes Education Self-Management for Ongoing and Newly Diagnosed is delivered by Registered Healthcare Professionals and Diabetes Educators, trained to guide participants to take control over their own diabetes.

“We are proud to launch this program” Debbie Cunliffe, Manager at Diabetes Help Tauranga said. “Participants can expect to learn real life skills for managing diabetes across many areas such as food choices, physical activity, diabetes distress and medications.”

Diabetes is the fastest growing chronic health condition in New Zealand and is set to become the number one burden of disease in New Zealand over the next 10 years. There are currently 241, 463 people known to have diabetes in New Zealand, 10, 391 of these are in the Bay of Plenty.

The DESMOND program is the only evidence-based education program for people with type two diabetes in New Zealand which emphasises that, for the person with type two diabetes their most valuable health resource is themselves. DESMOND was developed in the UK through strong evidence based research and tested by the largest global RCT into education provided at diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes (Davies et al 2008). There is evidence to show that better self-management of diabetes can result in significant and sustained weight loss, increased physical activity, improved general well-being and a better understanding of the psychological distress that can often accompany a diagnosis of type two diabetes.

For further information, or to enrol on a free DESMOND program in 2018 contact info@diabeteshelp.org.nz or ring the Diabetes Help Tauranga INFOline on 07 571 3422.

My dear human, who has looked after me for 13 years, has sadly now passed away and my temporary human goes back to the UK on 2nd December!

So, I am desperately looking for a ‘new human’ who will love to stroke me and offer me a lap to snuggle down on. I am a bit distrusting of strangers, so could only cope with one or two humans in a household and no other animals. However, I have become friendlier in recent weeks. Needs must!

I do love my food, so you will have to watch my diet, but I love to be brushed and purr fit to bust. Just so that you know I am up to date with my injections and I was given a full bill of health two weeks ago.

So, if you can help – please ring my temporary human. Here’s hoping.
Many thanks Tabitha.

$2 each or three for $5. Green and Thai basil is ready; try chervil and you'll never use parsley again. Add salad burnet or Upland cress to your salads or attract the bees to pollinate your fruit and beans by growing borage.
Some named varieties of tomatoes, mostly cherry type - red, yellow, orange, white - some suitable for hanging baskets - at the same price. Running low on chillies, cucumbers, zucchini and capsicums but more will be ready in a couple of weeks.
Raspberries - small plants of the ivory coloured variety $2. Limited number of flower seedlings and vegetable plants plus a few unnamed tomato plants that desperately need to be planted out in the open ground at $0.50 each.
No chemical sprays have been used and I feed with liquid seaweed or worm juice.
I would also be extremely grateful for donations of small plastic flower pots - the type that the ''potted colour' plants come in. I've tried every op shop around with no joy.
