[{"type":"text","content":"\n\nThis year’s Diabetes Awareness Week (13-19 June) is celebrating the triumphs and challenges for all people with diabetes.\n\n\nTo celebrate the week, as well as the updated NICE (National Institute of Health and Care Excellence) guidelines, which will allow more people than ever before have access to modern diabetes management technology, Dexcom is hosting its ‘No Pricks Parlour’ in London on 14 June.\n\n\nDexcom will soon be expanding its range of real-time continuous glucose monitoring (rt-CGM) systems to include Dexcom ONE and Dexcom G7 Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) System, promoting wider access to diabetes technology.\n\n\n LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--\nCome chill with us!

Since using Dexcom CGM, taking care of my diabetes has been easier and given me more time for the things I love to do. Greater access to diabetes management tools – like Dexcom’s CGM - is so cool, because even more people will be able to use this life-changing technology. Now that is bloody great news, and I’m ready for an ice cream to celebrate!”\n\nDexcom’s No Pricks Parlour\n\nIn a bid to celebrate those with diabetes, ‘good vibes only’ and ‘no pricks allowed’, No Pricks Parlour visitors will be offered a delicious cactus-style ice cream (made without pricks, of course). While guests sit back, relax and enjoy Dexcom’s “Prickin’ Delicious” ice cream, a delicious green cactus flavour made with aloe and notes of orange, they’ll have the opportunity ...
