Coffee and Connect Gillingham- Diabetes and looking after your feet

Join us for Coffee and Connect in Gillingham to learn how diabetes can affect your feet and what you can do to care for them. Podiatrist Helen Towers will lead an informal, practical session covering footcare advice, common signs to watch for and simple steps to reduce risk. Tea and coffee are provided free, creating a relaxed environment where you can ask questions and get clear, evidence-based guidance.

This event is open to anyone living with or affected by diabetes, including carers and family members who want to support someone they care about. Whether you are managing your own condition or are worried about a friend or relative, you will hear useful tips on everyday foot checks, skin and nail care, suitable footwear and when to seek professional help. The session aims to make footcare straightforward and accessible.

Come along to the Sunlight Centre in Gillingham to meet others, chat with a specialist and connect with local support. The session is free to attend and designed to be friendly and easy to follow, with time for conversation and practical advice from a qualified podiatrist. Bring your questions and join us for a cup of coffee and helpful information about looking after your feet when you have diabetes.
