Welcome to Streetwise!

Streetwise covers the issues that really matter to young people with type 1 diabetes, providing a safe space online where you can learn about things that can be uncomfortable to talk about.

  • Crowd dancing and enjoying concert

    You can get loads of useful advice and information about topics such as alcohol, festivals and eating out to help you live your life as a young person.

  • Group of people drinking beer and laughing

    Streetwise is also a place where you can get involved! We understand that everybody’s type 1 diabetes is unique, so we want to hear from you.

  • Mother waving goodbye after dropping off son

    Streetwise offers you the chance to share your experiences, spark discussions and see how other young people manage their diabetes.

There’s no pressure, though! You can get involved if and when you’re ready. Explore the topics in Streetwise in your own time. Come back to pick up conversations or refresh your knowledge whenever you like!
