About this Event
Diabetes UK and the Midlands Long Term Conditions and Prevention Clinical Networks would like to invite colleagues to the Midlands Diabetes Conference 2026 to join us for a day dedicated to sharing knowledge, best practices and innovative ideas in the field of diabetes care on Tuesday 9th June 2026 10am-4.30pm at Holiday Inn Coventry M6, Jct.2, Hinckley Road, Coventry, CV2 2HP
We are pleased to confirm the keynote presentation will be given by Professor Clare Hambling, National Clinical Director for Diabetes & Obesity

We are inviting colleagues from across the region to share best practice and celebrate innovation in diabetes care by submitting abstracts in the following areas:
- Clinical practice

- Audit
- Research
Abstracts from the above healthcare disciplines are invited and should contain the following information:
- Abstract/Project Title
- Author/s
- Organisation
- Project Objective

Whilst there is no template to follow, we ask that the abstract fit comfortably on an A3 poster, which will be printed on your behalf.
Three abstracts will be selected for oral presentation on the day of the conference (approximately 10–15 minutes each). These will be evaluated by an expert panel, and M&S vouchers will be awarded to the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners. The winning abstracts will also be submitted for publication in Diabetes Update, a healthcare professional journal.
If you prefer to submit a poster presentation only, please indicate this in your submission.
All submitted abstracts will be displayed at the conference, providing an opportunity for attendees to read about the work and network with the authors.
