Diabetes UK’s Know Your Risk tool asks seven simple questions covering age, ethnicity, family history, waist measurement, BMI and blood pressure to give a low, increased, moderate or high risk score for type 2 diabetes.

It is free to use for anyone aged 18 or over (excluding pregnant women), takes around five minutes, and is available any time at riskscore.diabetes.org.uk.

Depending on your result, Diabetes UK provides tailored next steps – from general prevention advice through to a letter you can take to your GP – and can also follow up with personalised email guidance.
