We Won’t Stop
June 2023 marks two years since Diabetes NZ presented at a parliamentary select committee hearing to advocate for CGM funding. Over the past five years we have laid the groundwork for a final push that advocates strongly for the funding of CGMs.
Now is the time to make this a political issue New Zealanders care about.
We are kicking off the next stage with our campaign: We Won’t Stop
We Won’t Stop until all New Zealanders living with diabetes who are using insulin have access to the global standard of care, including funded CGMs to manage their diabetes and avoid complications.
