Helping improve the lives of skin disease patients. 

The British Skin Foundation is the only UK charity that raises money to fund research into all types of skin diseases, including skin cancer.

Sixty percent of British people currently suffer from or have suffered with a skin disease at some point during their lifetime. Whilst some skin conditions are manageable, others are severe enough to kill.

With your help we can change that. Through funding vital research, treatments and cures for common skin conditions like eczema or acne, through to potential killers like malignant melanoma, can be discovered. 

Whilst we are dedicated to raising money for research, we also aim to raise public awareness of skin diseases. We are committed to educating people about different skin conditions, helping to reduce stigma and promote understanding of skin disease and the physical and mental impact it can have upon a person. 

The British Skin Foundation receives no statutory funding and relies completely on donations. Find out more about our research here.
