Brett McGregor on why diabetes is important to him

June 6, 2018

We thoroughly enjoyed working with Brett McGregor back in 2015 on the MasterClass, Keep Calm and Learn to Cook pilot programme which was delivered into South Auckland secondary schools. This article by Caroline Wood was on the June 2018 Blog of Diabetes New Zealand (and 2016 DNZ magazine) has Brett talking about his efforts to make a difference, including his mahi on our programme. https://www.diabetes.org.nz/blog/2018/5/30/keep-calm-and-learn-to-cook
