Alliance to tackle growing tide of diabetes in West Moreton 

An innovative alliance with key health sector partners has been established in the West Moreton region to address the growing prevalence of diabetes in the community.

The West Moreton Diabetes Alliance was established to enable the West Moreton community to make healthy lifestyle choices, prevent diabetes and improve the lives of people living with the disease, and those touched by it.


The Alliance is working to address four key pillars – leadership and advocacy within the health sector, awareness within the community, access to care for community members and education for health professionals and the community.

Members of the Alliance include Darling Downs and West Moreton PHN, West Moreton Health, The University of Queensland, University of Southern Queensland, Ipswich Hospital Foundation, Kambu Health, Diabetes Queensland and Ipswich City Council.
