I think basically through my career, but today there is No Diabetes, which is a website that is absolutely packed with information, almost everything that you need to know about diabetes, caring for your feet, your eyes, your kidneys, everything you could possibly think of is there and it's very easy to find. It's newdiabetes.org.uk and that's the website and you could very easily find information. You could also join if you wish. Yes, yes, definitely. Everybody, anyone, even someone who just wants to know about diabetes because they're fantastic slides or videos, short ones, very explanatory and very easy to look at and they do help. I still look at them if someone asks me about something I tell them to look but I often look because things are updated. Things change. I mean, it's been a long, long time since when I started nursing. Things have changed all the time, so you can't depend on your knowledge that you had before to carry you through. You need to be abreast of what's happening. and the No Diabetes website is updated quite often. There's also Diabetes UK as well.
