Upfront
Summer fun December signals the start of Diabetes Youth camp season, which continues throughout January and February. Here are snaps from around Aotearoa of young people who live with diabetes coming together to learn, challenge themselves, support each other, celebrate, and make the most of the great outdoors we’re so lucky to have access to. AUCKLAND
Auckland teens made up for their Covid-cancelled April camp with a day of activities in December.
Diabetes Youth Auckland held their 2021 Live Brave camp at YMCA Shakespear Lodge. From 11 to 14 January, 40 kids, nine to 12 years old, sailed, kayaked, climbed, mountain boarded, learned bush cooking, and dressed up for a gameshow night.
