Gaynor Kebbell, RN, MSc is a Diabetes Specialist Nurse Practitioner and Facilitator for the Bath & NE Somerset Integrated Diabetes Service.

Gaynor was part of a collaboration which set up the first UK Renal Diabetes Inpatient service and the National Renal Diabetes Forum. It was working with patients with potentially preventable complications of diabetes which led to a move to primary care to focus on preventative medicine.

Gaynor completed an MSc in diabetes from Warwick University and is a Non-Medical Prescriber. She is also one of the Diabetes UK Clinical Champion alumni having participated in the leadership and community programmes.

In her role as Clinical Lead for Wiltshire, Gaynor led successful post covid recovery of a large community service which saw substantial reduction in waiting lists and increased recruitment.

Gaynor is passionate about teaching, working as occasional lecturer for multiple universities. She has published and presented on diabetes service integration and has provided diabetes education on social media and radio.

Having worked in both primary and secondary care, Gaynor is a pioneer of integrated diabetes care, and has co-led the Bath 3-D Integrated Diabetes service since 2015. Her current QI project is improving community care for Early Onset Type 2 Diabetes.
