The Lions Club of Berowra supports Diabetes Australia

APR 20, 2006

The BBQ/Sausage Sizzle held in the car park of Berowra Marketplace on Saturday raised nearly $350.00 in sales and donations which we will be forwarding to Diabetes Australia as contribution to their national "Great Australian Bite" promotion, held every year in April.

We also had a visit from Natalie Martin and Aramis (pictured) who are helping people with their Diabetic Alert and Therapy dogs. These dogs increase the independence, safety and mobility of the Diabetic person by providing them with greater confidence to go out in public on their own without the need to rely on family and friends to accompany them, putting an end to the isolation often faced when one is afraid to go out for fear of having a Hypoglycaemic episode.
