Connect with others who understand what it’s like, share experiences and find inspiration together.
A light afternoon tea will be provided.

Day 2: CarbSMART and ShopSMART sessions
Tuesday, 1 December 2026
CarbSMART – 9am till 12pm
Understand carbohydrates and how they affect blood glucose levels.
Carbohydrates can affect your blood glucose levels, but that does not mean you have to cut them out completely or give up the foods you enjoy.
The key is understanding which carbohydrate foods work best for you, how much to have and when to include them in your day.
Learn how to choose quality carbs, manage portions and enjoy food in a way that works for you and your diabetes.
This workshop is primarily for people living with type 2 or gestational diabetes. It may be suitable for some people living with type 1 diabetes.
ShopSMART – 12:30pm till 3pm
Food packaging can be full of claims, numbers and ingredient lists – and it is not always clear which products are the best choice for you. The supermarket can be confusing when you’re living with diabetes.
ShopSMART helps you make more confident choices at the supermarket. Learn how to read food labels, compare products and choose foods that support your diabetes and overall health.
This workshop is for people living with all types of diabetes.
Full address will be provided upon booking. You’re welcome to bring along a support person. Please ensure they are registered to attend the workshop.
