The amount of people faced with diabetes is growing and by 2010, Ashford & St Peter's NHS Trust will be looking to treat well over 20,000 with the condition. To meet this growing demand not only by way of treatment, but also by providing educational and research facilities, The Stephanie Marks Appeal was launched in June 2003. It aims to significantly raise awareness of the condition and provide a new dedicated diabetes centre on the St Peter's site that will serve the entire catchment area of Ashford and St. Peter's Hospitals NHS Trust.
