Join us on the 2kg Challenge!
If you are at risk of diabetes, losing just 2kg can reduce your chance of developing type 2 diabetes by 30%.
The 2kg Challenge is a diabetes awareness, detection and prevention campaign.
Western Sydney is a diabetes hotspot: if you live in Western Sydney you are twice as likely to have diabetes than people living in Sydney’s Eastern or Northern suburbs. You are even at higher risk if you are Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander, Asian, Middle Eastern, or from the Indian subcontinent or the Pacific Islands.
If you have diabetes you have a higher risk of health problems including heart attack, stroke and kidney failure.
