Diabetes UK spends up to £6.5 million on research".[1] Diabetes UK uses services of Ipsos MORI[2].

According to its website The Strategic Alliance "was established to explore potential joint initiatives that would drive delivery of diabetes policy in order to enhance the quality of diabetes care & improve outcomes for people with diabetes." [4] The representative of the charity Bridget Turner described the alliance as being free of commercial interest, "a non-commercial body with labour/funding contributed equally in a four way split between the three pharma companies and the charity".[5] The website of the Strategic Alliance does not provide exhaustive contact information apart from one enquiry email address.
