On the occasion of the opening of its branch in Maintenon, the Espace Diabetes 28 association will organize a conference this Saturday entitled “Diet and well-being”.
Since its creation in 2013, the Espace Diabetes 28 association, managed by patients and supported by health professionals, has aimed to present the disease and raise public awareness through the dissemination of information. The association also aims to support and help people with diabetes and those around them. It also organizes conferences in order to communicate to as many people as possible the actions and behaviors to adopt to prevent the disease.
“It is to meet the needs that we are opening a branch in Maintenon, where our sector correspondent and member of the association, Laurent Troillo, lives”, explains Rosine Cambour, nurse coordinator of the association. This antenna will offer, among other things, group walks and conferences throughout the year. The hosts of this Saturday’s event, Émilie Colas, dietician, and Éric Damoiseau, sports coach, will focus their entertainment on two themes: dietetics first with seasonal vegetables and end-of-year holiday meals. The other will focus on the importance of physical activity.
It will also be an opportunity to present the activity of the association. “After the conference, those who wish will be able to discuss with the speakers, but also be screened”, specifies Rosine Cambour.
Practice. Saturday October 15, at 3 p.m., in the Cèdre room of the Maison des Associations, 45, rue René-et-Jean-Lefèvre, Pierres.
