Freeport, The Bahamas - World Diabetes Day will be observed on November 14th worldwide. The theme for this year is “Building Bridges within the Diabetic Community.” The Grand Bahama Health Services Diabetic Support Group has organized a myriad of activities to increase awareness of this disease that is affecting so many individuals within our communities in the northern Bahamas and throughout our Commonwealth of Islands. Attached is a list of the planned events. We would be grateful if our local media would follow the events to provide news coverage and educational information for the benefit of the public. We would particularly pleased if for any reason you are unable to cover all of the events, special consideration be given to the following: · Friday November 6th, 2015: One-Day Conference at Pelican Bay Resort 9:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. · Saturday November 14th, 2015: Walkathon at 6:30 a.m. from Rand Memorial Hospital west parking lot (East Mall Drive) · Saturday November 14th, 2015: Health Expo immediately following the walkathon on Rand Memorial Hospital west parking lot and will continue until 12:00 noon
