Today is “World Diabetes Day” on this Thursday, November 14th.

You’re invited to gather your family, friends, or co-workers and show your glow at Lace Up to End Diabetes taking place this evening between 5-8 pm in Bedford at the Lebrun Recreation Centre.

Local Lacers are coming together for a 5 km walk (1 km options available) to light up the night sky blue in support of the over 124,000 Nova Scotians living with diabetes.

#LetsMakeTime for the 1 in 3 people affected by diabetes in Canada.

This Diabetes Awareness Month so you’re invited to #WearBlue, share a photo to show your support.

I’m honoured to be the MC for the event, thanks to Tanya Poulton and the folks or the invite.

-Ian
