Is ‘Growing Out of Eczema’ a Real Thing?

Join the West Surrey and North East Hants Support Group of the National Eczema Society for an information afternoon with a talk on Saturday, February 28, by Professor Tess McPherson,

Associate Professor of Paediatric and Adolescent Dermatology at the University of Oxford.

It takes place at Guildford Baptist Church, Millmead Guildford GU2 4BE, and there will be displays of the society’s literature, as well as refreshments.

Prof McPherson, who is also consultant dermatologist at Oxford University Hospitals, will talk about why some children ‘grow out of eczema’ and others don’t, with a focus on how to manage eczema in teens and beyond.

Her talk will include time for questions and answers.

Eczema is a common skin condition in the UK affecting one in five children and up to one in 10 adults, and its prevalence is increasing globally.

All are welcome to attend. Entry is free and donations will be greatly appreciated.

National Eczema Society literature will be available.
