Diabetes Advocacy Group, Tasmania - affectionately known as the DAGs. We're a group of people with diabetes who are organising events and projects to make connections and provide support to diabetics and the people around us. Previously, we worked on advocating for wider adoption of CGM subsidies, which became available for type 1 diabetics in 2022. For now the group is physically located in Launceston and north west Tasmania, but we would welcome involvement in the group from people all over Tasmania.

Our current projects:

• Provide insulin pump and sensor supplies to be accessed in emergencies - perhaps at local hospital or chemists.
• Fitness groups.

Events:

• In person events, so we can meet each other.
• A conference with speakers.

If you want to get involved, please contact Freya (hello@freyasu.com).
