Celebrating 25 Years of YDA – A Reflection

Celebrating 25 Years of YDA – A Reflection

This year marks Youth Diabetes Action’s 25th Anniversary — a milestone that began in 1996 when a small group of dedicated parents and healthcare professionals came together to support children with Type 1 diabetes. The very first “Sweet Pea Camp” was organised to help young participants learn blood glucose management through play. That small beginning blossomed into the official launch of YDA in 2001 and has since transformed countless lives. The spirit of companionship and learning continues today.

To mark this special anniversary, we are launching a 25th Anniversary Reflection across our social media platforms. We warmly invite you to look back with us — share your memories, stories, or photos from past camps and activities.

Do you have any photos from 1996 or other YDA milestones? Upload them to Facebook or Instagram and tag us @yda_hk, and hashtag #我的YDA回憶#MyYDAMemories, to be part of this collective reflection.
