Earlier this year, we hosted our “Psoriasis on the Skin” photoshoot. The campaign was a huge success, and our photographer, Kaye Ford, did an amazing job of capturing authentic images of psoriasis. 📸 We had lots of the #PsoCommunity get involved, who built connections with one another and shared their experiences of living with psoriasis. The images will be used in a variety of ways, and in particular to update our new leaflet series, which was launched during #PsoriasisAwarenessWeek #PAW24. Thank you to everyone who participated in the shoot! Did you get involved? We’d love to you to share your experiences and images using the hashtags #PsoriasisOnTheSkin #PsoCommunity.

Such a powerful animation!💜 #Community #PAWCommunity #PAW24
Consultant Clinical Psychologist @ Cardiff and Vale | Lead Psychologist at All Wales Adult Cystic Fibrosis Service | Psoriasis Expert by Experience | Author of Coping With Psoriasis
🌟 As Psoriasis Awareness Week 2024 comes to a close, I’ve been reflecting on how living with Psoriasis has shaped my life over the years—and how it continues to affect me today. This year’s theme, Community, has reminded me of those around me who have made this easier to bear. My family and friends have offered constant support, encouragement, and strength during the toughest times. This has given me the courage to be more open about my struggles and share my psychological expertise with others facing similar challenges. One of the most rewarding aspects has been collaborating with my children, who have not only helped me build my website but also created wonderful animations and videos. I'm excited to share the latest animation, created by my daughter, based on a section on cognitive behavioural therapy from my book. It beautifully illustrates how our thoughts shape our feelings and actions. Click the image below to watch it. Thank you to my family, friends, and everyone in this amazing community. Let’s continue supporting and uplifting each other. 💪 #PsoriasisAwareness #MentalHealth #copingwithpsoriasis #Community
