The trainers for this workshop were: Dr. Joanna Francis, doctor in Pharmacy, Dr. Jackie Maalouf, founder and president of DiaLeb and dietitian Lina Farhat. The event was well attended by DiaLeb’s volunteers, bloggers, social media influencers and people with diabetes. The workshop ended with glucose and HbA1c testing offered to all the attendees.
