The Diabetes Prevention Decathlon programme is a set of structured education programme designed to help you avoid being diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes.
The Diabetes Prevention Decathlon is a 10-week programme that includes holistic wellbeing information as well as physical activity sessions and can be delivered as a face-to-face or virtual offering.
You will attend weekly, and within your team, you will collaborate to discover how to best reduce their risks; through theory sessions, games, discussion as well as having a 45-minute physical activity session that includes a variety of sports.
Competing in your teams, you will be motivated to increase your activity levels in between sessions to win ‘sweatcoins’ which you can redeem in exchange for prizes. Sweatcoins are also ‘earnt’ by watching weekly recap videos and participating in quizzes.
