Application/Key learning points: While there are many awards that celebrate the latest research, innovative programmes and successes in diabetes prevention advocacy, very few that acknowledge the victory of the patients who have struggled and overcome the challenges and hardships caused by the clinical or non-clinical implications of the disease. The Kellion awards, however, do this. This concept is a potential source for a best practice in diabetes management, sharing how patients have survived and lived through diabetes over a span of many decades. A more recent addition to the Kellion Victory Medal Scheme is the Kellion Carer’s Award, which recognises years of love, dedication and support by a carer.
