In partnership with The Diabetes Safety Organisation

1 in 12 of your workforce is living with diabetes.

Most workplaces have a fire drill and a first aider. Almost none are prepared for a hypo. Level 1 certified awareness training and the Diabetes Hypo Kit change that.

What a hypo is

A hypo, or hypoglycaemia, is when blood sugar drops too low. It can develop quickly. Someone may become confused, shaky, sweaty, or lose coordination, and in a severe hypo they can have a seizure or lose consciousness.

Recognising the signs early and giving a fast-acting glucose shot can make all the difference while you wait for further help. A trained colleague knows what to do, and when to call 999.

Preparation replaces panic.

The Diabetes Hypo Kit open, with its three fast-acting glucose shots

One system: training and the kit

The kit supports the response. The training creates the confidence. Together they give your team a clear, calm way to handle a hypo at work.

  • Level 1 certified awareness training

    Delivered to your team through a QR refresher portal, so anyone can complete it and come back to it.

  • Three fast-acting glucose shots

    For treating a hypo, in line with NHS guidance. Gluten and caffeine free.

  • A compact workplace case

    Designed to sit alongside your existing first aid equipment.

  • A refillable system

    The glucose shots have a shelf life, so refills keep every kit in date and ready.

£35.99per kit. Volume pricing for multiple sites.

Why we partnered with the Diabetes Safety Organisation

The Diabetes Safety Organisation works to make workplaces safer for people with diabetes. They certify the Level 1 awareness training that comes with every kit. The partnership exists because being prepared for a hypo should be as normal as having a first aider.

“We make sports nutrition. This is not that. When David at the Diabetes Safety Organisation showed me how unprepared most workplaces are for a hypo, it stopped being a product conversation. Workplaces train for fires that never come. One in twelve of us is living with diabetes. This is the kit and the training we would want in the room if it were one of ours.”

Trusted by teams who take safety seriously

We are documenting our first workplace rollouts as named case studies, with quotes from the people responsible for safety on site. They will appear here once each organisation has confirmed what we can share.

Level 1 awareness training prepares colleagues to recognise a hypo, respond, and know when to call 999. It does not make anyone a medical professional. First-aid needs assessments increasingly consider medical conditions in the workforce.
