Speaking in the House of Commons on 12 November 2026

Business of the House

Contribution

Saturday 14 November is World Diabetes Day, and it is estimated that around 6 million people in the UK live with diabetes. The theme this year is early diagnosis and risk reduction, and I encourage Ministers to consider my ten-minute rule Bill, the Type 1 Diabetes Screening (Children) Bill, about an early screening programme for children. Will the Leader of the House join me in helping to raise awareness among our constituents about the signs of diabetes, particularly type-1 diabetes, which are the four Ts—thirst, tiredness, thin and toilet—so we can ensure that people get the lifesaving treatment they need when they are first diagnosed?
