Healthcare professionals are invited to sign up to Insulin Safety Week 2023, which is returning later this year.

The national insulin safety campaign will take place in sites across the UK and Ireland between Monday, May 15, and Sunday, May 21.

Organised by Orange Juice Communications, the awareness week aims to educate nurses, doctors and other healthcare staff about insulin and how to use it safely.

In 2022, more than 420 sites took part in the annual insulin safety campaign, organisers have announced.
