Type 1 diabetes is a rare form of diabetes mainly affecting kids and teenagers. In Kerala, there are thousands of children being affected and the numbers are alarmingly increasing. In developed countries, the management of type 1 diabetes is much more structured and the children will have a normal lifespan similar to those without the disease.

P.Kesavadev a Trust has been supporting free insulin, glucometer, strips and lab investigations for hundreds of type 1 diabetes children. Kesavadev Trust Type 1 diabetes Project (KT1DP) will now undertake extensive steps in educating parents and teachers across the state of Kerala with the support of local NGOs to improve awareness about this disease.

Dr.M.K.Muneer, Hon. Minister for Panchayats and Social Welfare presented the first best parent award organised by KT1DP ‘Sweet Stars’, to Ms. Sheeja at the function at Press Club, Trivandrum.
