On Thursday club president Robert Pfeiffer officially presented a continuous glucose monitor to the unit that delivers diabetes services to residents of Dubbo and the western region.

The monitor provides real-time blood glucose information that allows for better management of the disease.

"People take it home and wear it around for weeks, and it's working all the time reading their blood sugar," Mr Pfeiffer.

"Then they take that record back to the unit for it to be analysed. It helps tailor their treatment."

The club was prompted to purchase the device by a new member.

"With her granddaughter going to the unit, our new member saw the need for the additional apparatus," Mr Pfeiffer said.

"Our member came and asked if we could help so we put it to the club and the board."

Mr Pfeiffer said every new member who joined the club was given the opportunity of supporting a good cause.

"When we get a new member join our club, after they settle in, we say to them 'If you've got a good project we'll give you $1000 for it'," he said.

"If it meets our criteria and ticks all the boxes they get the money for their cause."

Mr Pfeiffer said the purchase of the continuous glucose monitor sat well with the club's philosophy of helping "a lot of people instead of a few".
