Diabetes Australia

Diabetes Australia is the national body dedicated to reducing the impact of diabetes across the country.

Established in 1984, it advocates for better care, prevention, and research to combat one of Australia’s biggest health challenges. The organisation supports over 1.4 million Australians living with diabetes and works to prevent type 2 diabetes among those at risk.

Through the administration of the National Diabetes Services Scheme (NDSS), it provides practical assistance, education, and subsidised products. Diabetes Australia invests heavily in research, funding over 500 projects to improve treatment and find a cure. It partners with healthcare professionals, educators, and communities to raise awareness, promote early detection, and deliver programs that empower people to live well with diabetes.

Guided by values of compassion, collaboration, and accountability, Diabetes Australia is a trusted voice driving change for a healthier future
