MyDesmond take 2
🎉Some meetings one has to go to, others you come away absolutely inspired and ready to change the world!
✨Today’s workshop, with two experts from Pro-Active Community who have lived experience of Type 2 diabetes and learning disability, hosted by Lauren Fulton and Maria Truesdale, was most definitely the latter.
đź’™The research team at University of Glasgow are co-producing an accessible App version of MyDesmond, the widely used tool for people managing their diabetes.
đź‘‚Listening to two experts sharing ideas, suggestions, likes and dislikes, things to include and things to absolutely not have, was not just insightful but really interesting.
✅Helpful colours and ones to avoid, visuals, graphics’s, audible alerts, instructional films clips by peers, helpful prompts or alarms, mentor or buddy links, support aspects, hints and tips, the ideas came think and fast.
👏🏼Once again, hearing so much lived experience will truly help shape products and services being developed.
🎉Thank you so much to all involved, looking forward to the next set of workshops.
