Well what a year it’s been! We probably say that at the end of most years, but a year is a long time, and we get involved with so many projects across a year, as we bring the year to a close it always feels like our chance to take a breath and reflect on what’s happened!
This year, instead of writing up a blog post for you to read about what’s been going on, myself and Peachy brought back “The Diabetes Dugout Podcast” following a period of 622 days since our last episode! We’ve made a few changes behind the scenes to help us with virtual content and we’re now in a place to bring back the pod on a more regular basis! So, if you enjoy listening to me and peachy talk to guests and discuss Football and Diabetes, get ready for more episodes in 2024! We’d also really appreciate you getting in touch to let us know who you’d like us to speak to and what topics you’d like us to discuss. All feedback is useful!
With all that being said, here is the podcast episode summarising 2023 below but to give you an idea of what we discussed, and in what order, here’s a few bullet points around the structure of our conversation, to help you with where you might want to tune in or pay particular attention to!
- Our first Family day and Adult session.
- Our first ever Women’s Team fixture.
- DiaEuro 2023 in Poland. The Men’s team headed off to the European Futsal Championships for People with Diabetes again.
- Our Diabetes Awareness Event in Essex.
- Our new merchandise with Harlequin Teamwear.
- Our New director joining the organisation – Rhian Holland

We hope it’s an enjoyable listen and watch, and as always thank you for the continued support for everything we do. We couldn’t do it without the community backing our work!
And lastly, I just wanted to wish you all a happy end to 2023 wherever you are and a happy Christmas to all those celebrating!
See you in 2024.
Chris
