About this trial
The overall aim of this study is to examine the feasibility of a 12-month, two-arm lifestyle intervention to induce and maintain remission of type 2 diabetes (T2D). The findings from the feasibility study will inform the recruitment, design and delivery of the interventions in a 5-arm, 24-month randomised controlled trial.
