Project summary
This is a short qualitative research project which seeks to understand and make visible the experience of HGV drivers with diabetes. It builds on the survey undertaken by DSO and the Road Haulage Association (RHA) in 2024 which identified a range of concerns related to HGV drivers and diabetes management.
The project aims to better understand how HGV drivers manage the various ways their condition can impact their health, safety and driving performance.
