Story
SADAH- (South Asian Diabetes Association in memory of Helen), is the UK’s FIRST charity solely focused on saving lives in Diabetic patients within the South Asian Community.
This initiative is being launched by Dr Veena Babu (MBBS BSc MRCGP), NHS GP and Media Doctor, whose passion for this project stemmed from losing her mother to the dire complications of Diabetes, in June 2022.
SADAH is an interactive active charity with monthly sessions around London, educating on diet, exercise, mental health and compliance with treatment – FREE to attend for those with Diabetes. We aim to set up community Connect Champions who will help to reach the sub communities with key information. We aim to use objective parameters of HbA1c & Cholesterol levels to monitor change in our community members
Why it matters
Diabetes is one of the biggest health challenges facing the UK. £1million an hour already being spent by the NHS on the condition.
South Asian Communities are 6 times more likely to have Type 2 Diabetes in comparison to the general population. The number of Diabetes related deaths in 2021, was reported at 140,775.
Today there’s about 3 million diabetic South Asian patients in the UK. Our Aim is to Empower, Educate and Encourage these patients- to take control of their Diabetes and their overall health.
