Eczema isn’t always visible. There are the scratches on the skin. But there are also the things that happen underneath:   

The worry.

The exhaustion.

The uncertainty. 

The impact on confidence, sleep, school and everyday childhood.   

These are the scratches you can’t see.  

This World Eczema Day, we’re sharing some of the experiences that children and families living with eczema can face every day.  You can follow our stories as we share them on social media from 14 September. 

Follow the campaign:

You don’t have to face eczema alone. Our support is free. If eczema is affecting your child’s life – or yours – you can get in touch to find out how EOS can help. 

Get support

Eczema Outreach Support provides practical and emotional support to children and young people living with eczema – and their families – across the UK. Whether you’re struggling with the day-to-day demands of eczema, feeling overwhelmed by what to do next, or simply need someone who understands, we’re here to listen.   

Not sure whether EOS can help? That’s okay. Get in touch and talk to us about what’s happening. You don’t need to have all the answers before you ask for support.   

The scratches you can’t see.   

Because eczema is more than what you can see on the skin.  And no child or family should have to face it alone.
