Diabetes UK has been voted one of the best places to work in the UK at an awards
ceremony sponsored by the Financial Times.
The charity came twelfth in the top 50
best employers award, fifth in the category of workplaces of a similar size and 
was voted the third best non profit organisation to work for in the UK.

Diabetes UK has low absence and turnover rates and over 90 per cent of women return
to work after maternity leave. More than half of employees in the organisation take
advantage of flexible working arrangements to improve work/life balance.
