DIABETES AWARENESS
A group of Lions Club volunteers assisted by two qualified nurses carried out a diabetes screening at two of the local chemists in Malahide. Over two days 67 people were screened with the following results: Normal 60 and possible 7. The club has been operating this programme annually since 2010. The results are the most positive since the exercise commenced, with just less that 10% possible. This contrasts to just over 20% when the programme started. This is an ongoing service provide by Malahide Lions Club to their local community, in keeping with their motto "WE SERVE". |
