A Sivlerstar charity modible diabetes testing van is visiting the Alexandra Road Mosque on Friday, 1st March. The visit, in association with South Readng NHS GPs and NHS Berkshire public health authorities, offers a speedy diabetes check and body type analysis. The Silverstar charity concentrates on diabetes awareness and testing in people of South Asian origin in Britain, who have a higher risk of Type 2 diabetes. It also operates in South Asia. Hopefully there will be more visits in the future to extend awareness and testing of this serious condition to all those of South Asian origin in our community.
