The NPDA Youth Voice Communication Project
NPDA and RCPCH &Us have been working together to involve children, young people and families in the audit and to create a range of resources.
Projects like this are important because they help us feel less alone and show us that others have similar experiences
RCPCH &Us have hosted NPDA communication workshops where children and young people from England, Wales and Jersey have come together to create, influence and shape the way audit information is shared is with children and young people living with diabetes, as well as their families. The resources created include posters which can be downloaded and displayed in NPDA units, guides and tips on how healthcare professionals can best communicate NPDA information to children and young people, and age-appropriate information about NPDA which can be shared with children and young people.
The materials and resources can be accessed via the Sharepoint site.

Information flyers
We have produced these for England, Wales and Jersey, designed for units to print and share with children, young people and families, to help explain what the NPDA is, what information is collected, and how their data is used. You can display the flyers in clinic waiting areas or include them in appointment packs.
