The 8 June marked the start of Diabetes Week in the UK.

With more than five million people expected to be diagnosed with diabetes in the UK by 2025* it is a very real health issue facing your clients and their families.

At the age of 42 Fiona, an events manager and mum to twin girls, was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes.

“When I first found out I was really upset. I was worried about my health and being healthy enough to look after and enjoy my family” Fiona says.

After being diagnosed, Fiona purchased a life insurance policy with The Exeter which included access to nutritional consultations via HealthWise.

“I booked an appointment and had my first consultation via video-call from home. Having up to six consultations to support me meant I had lots of time to meet my goals by creating positive habits with lots of small steps.”

The path to a healthier future

So far, Fiona has had four consultations through HealthWise and has started to see the benefits of living a healthier lifestyle.
