BUZUD Bringing Diabetes Care Closer to the Community at NHG World Diabetes Day 2025

BUZUD Bringing Diabetes Care Closer to the Community at NHG World Diabetes Day 2025

BUZUD was honoured to take part in NHG World Diabetes Day at Bukit Canberra Community Plaza, joining residents, healthcare teams and partners for a meaningful day of awareness, screening and conversation around diabetes.

Set in the heart of the community, the event was all about empowering people to take charge of their health – and reminding everyone that with early detection, daily monitoring and the right support, living well with or at risk of diabetes is possible.

Bringing diabetes care to where people are

Holding World Diabetes Day at Bukit Canberra Community Plaza meant that information and support were brought directly to residents and families, in a familiar, accessible space.

Throughout the event, visitors could:

• Learn more about diabetes risk factors and complications
• Understand why early detection is so important
• Discover practical ways to keep diabetes under control through monitoring, lifestyle and follow-up care

The atmosphere was warm and approachable, making it easier for people to ask questions, clarify doubts and take that first step towards understanding their own risk.

Showcasing BUZUD’s diabetes care solutions

At the event, BUZUD had the opportunity to showcase our diabetes care solutions, designed to make monitoring and day‑to‑day management more convenient and less overwhelming.

Residents who visited our booth were able to see how our devices and tools can help with:

• Regular blood glucose monitoring at home in a simple, reliable way
• Tracking readings over time to spot trends and patterns
• Supporting conversations with doctors and nurses by providing clear, shareable data

By putting the devices into people’s hands and walking them through how everything works, we aimed to show that home monitoring does not have to be complicated or intimidating. Instead, it can be a powerful way to stay on top of health between clinic visits.

Early detection and daily monitoring: small steps, big impact

A key focus of NHG World Diabetes Day at Bukit Canberra was the message that small, consistent actions can make a big difference.

Through demonstrations and conversations, residents were reminded that:

• Early detection can catch issues before they become serious
• Daily or regular monitoring helps keep diabetes in check and guides lifestyle choices
• Taking ownership of one’s health today can prevent complications and protect quality of life in the years ahead

For BUZUD, it was encouraging to see residents genuinely interested in learning how to weave monitoring into their everyday routines, not just as a medical task, but as part of caring for themselves and their families.

A meaningful partnership for better health

At the event, BUZUD was deeply touched to receive a token of appreciation from NHG – a gesture that symbolised not just a successful day, but an ongoing partnership built on shared goals.

We are sincerely grateful to NHG and the organising team for:

• Creating a strong community platform for diabetes awareness
• Involving partners like BUZUD to bring practical tools and solutions to residents
• Championing a proactive approach to chronic disease prevention and management across Singapore

Looking ahead

Our time at NHG World Diabetes Day at Bukit Canberra Community Plaza reinforced what we believe strongly at BUZUD:

• Health education and tools must be brought closer to the community
• People are more likely to take action when information is clear, relatable and accessible
• Partnerships between healthcare institutions and innovators are essential for better outcomes

We look forward to continuing our collaboration with NHG and other partners to support better diabetes awareness, early detection and everyday management – so that more people in Singapore can live healthier, more confident lives.
