We’re pleased to see that some tanning bed adverts have been banned after making misleading claims about treating psoriasis.

It’s important to be clear: using a sunbed, tanning bed or at-home lamp is not the same as hospital-based UV therapy.

Hospital UV treatment uses a specific, controlled part of the light spectrum proven to help manage skin conditions. In contrast, sunbeds expose the skin to a much broader spectrum of light. Many use mostly, or only, UVA light, which is ineffective for treating psoriasis unless combined with a chemical called psoralen.

Behind every psoriasis journey, there’s often a partner learning, supporting, and adapting alongside them.

Ahead of Valentine’s Day, we’re inviting partners of people living with psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis to share their real-life experiences of what it is like to be in a relationship with someone with a long term condition.

Your story could help other couples feel understood.

If you'd like to share your story, please email us on mail@psoriasis-association.org.uk

Erythrodermic psoriasis is a rare and severe form of psoriasis that affects 1-2% of those who already have psoriasis. It affects all of the skin on the body and can cause intense itching, burning and inflammation.

We now have a new 'Erythrodermic psoriasis' information sheet available on our website to download.

Find it here https://www.psoriasis-association.org.uk/erythrodermic-psoriasis

Are you an adult with an altered or different appearance?
Do appearance-related concerns affect your confidence, social life, or emotional wellbeing?

Face IT@home is an online psychological support tool designed to help adults manage appearance-related distress. Research has shown that when used in a clinical setting and supported by health professionals, the tool can reduce psychosocial concerns for people with visible differences.

The programme includes 8 interactive sessions focusing on:
• Social skills
• Behaviour and thought change
• Understanding the psychological and social impact of appearance concerns
• Interactive videos and real-life scenarios

The University of Plymouth and the University of the West of England are offering free access to Face IT@home.
