Supporting people with diabetes and CVD

This project wants to create an intervention to better support people living with type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease (CVD).

Previous research has shown that some people are not always aware of the connection between type 2 diabetes and CVD, and this can affect their ability to manage these conditions.

This research wants to involve people who live with type 2 diabetes and CVD, and the health professionals that support them, to co-create an intervention that can be tailored to individuals’ needs and help improve management of these conditions.

It is being carried out by researchers at the University of Liverpool and will form part of a doctoral degree.
