At last years Thriveabetes, it was mentioned on more than one occasion that we should explore providing activities for children and we have made that our highest priority for Thriveabetes 2016. However, we are only accepting Children from the age of 5 years upwards and our 16+ year olds will have the option to attend the adult sessions.

This begs several questions that would help us develop a programme for them.

• What does your child with type 1 diabetes want out of Thriveabetes?
• What do you want for your child with type 1 diabetes?
• What age is your child with type 1 diabetes?

We are very interested to hear your thoughts and your child's thoughts on these questions.

Rebecca Flanagan is heading up a team of SuperMums to develop a programme for three different age groups and this would be fantastic information for them to have. Remember we are all volunteers and professional amateurs ;-)

You can email them to me at Grainne@thriveabetes.ie, or you can post them in the comments section below.
