From 13 to 16 November 2025, I attended, by invitation, the Parliamentary Diabetes Global Network (PDGN) Advocacy Forum in Valletta, Malta. The estimated cost of the trip for two people was £1,500. This was funded by the PGDN, 44 Howard Road, New Malden, Surrey, KT3 4EA.   PDGN is an organisation of parliamentarians who champion diabetes prevention, early diagnosis and the best treatments for all. [Registered 22 November 2025]
