Saturday 14 November 1998 11.00AM to 9.00PMNovotel Bayside HotelSt. Kilda BeachMelbourne“There are kiddies camps, and kiddies workshops, and meetings for oldies who can sit around and compare doctor stories, and gout stories etc etc, but I don’t fit into any of those categories, so it makes things a tad lonesome on the diabetes stakes. I tend to stay well out of it.” — Cate, 21 year-old student
After many years of being the forgotten generation, we are now putting the spotlight on 18 to 30 year-olds with diabetes. On World Diabetes Day, 14 November, 1998, the Novotel Bayside Hotel overlooking beautiful St Kilda beach in Melbourne is the place to be for the Inaugural Summit of Young Adults with Diabetes. There will be an extravaganza of the newest diabetes products and technologies, the best researchers, endocrinologists and diabetes educators, experts in motivation, and best of all 150 people who really know what it’s all about! Every minute detail of the day has been through the fine tooth comb of the members of “Reality Check” so you can be assured that it will be user-friendly, interesting and most importantly fun!
The registration fee of $49 ($29 concession) includes a three-course dinner with drinks, buffet lunch, morning and afternoon teas, and lots of giveaways from our sponsors. Priority will be given to young adults with diabetes, however health professionals, partners and any other interested people are more than welcome to attend. There are limited places and it is filling fast, so for more information and a registration brochure please contact :- Mike Janssen on 03 9654 8777, Professor Len HarrisonHead of the Autoimmunity & Transplantation Division, Walter & Eliza Hall Institute of Medical Research "The Cure - Dispelling the Myths"
