Diabetes UK has appointed Dawn Jackson as its first director of membership and marketing, with responsibility for marketing, corporate and community fundraising and supporter relations.

Dawn joins Diabetes UK from Leisure Connection, which manages facilities on behalf of local authorities and organisations such as Sport England.

The new role was created as a result of a restructuring of the charity.

Diabetes UK’s current marketing focus is on healthcare professionals, although it does form commercial partnerships such as that with Lloyds pharmacy.
