Living with type 1 diabetes on basal bolus insulin therapy doesn't mean living rigidly. FlexIT is our group education program designed to give you the knowledge and confidence to match your insulin to your food, activity and lifestyle — so you can live more freely, with your diabetes better in your control.

What is FlexIT?

FlexIT is a small-group education program delivered over three sessions by an experienced diabetes educator and dietitian. You'll receive practical, personalised guidance in a supportive environment alongside others who understand what it's like to manage type 1 diabetes every day.

Topics covered include:

  • Insulin adjustment for food and physical activity.
  • Carbohydrate counting, with hands-on practical activities.
  • Diabetes health targets and health checks.
  • Managing hypoglycaemia, hyperglycaemia and sick days.

Who is FlexIT for?

FlexIT is designed for people with type 1 diabetes who are managing their condition on basal bolus insulin therapy.
