Eczema Outreach Support

If you’ve had to manage eczema, then you’ll know: eczema doesn’t take a day off.

Not at weekends.

Not at night.

Not when a child just wants to focus at school.

For families living with eczema, it’s exhausting: the itching, the flare-ups, the broken sleep. Over time it can take the joy out of everyday childhood moments, it just never stops.

That’s why we don’t stop either.

We support children and parents facing eczema all year round, offering practical tools, trusted information, and a community that understands. When families have the right support, relief grows. Confidence builds. And space opens up for childhood to feel joyful again.

But we can only do this because of the incredible people who support us. By donating to EOS, you make sure every family who feels alone in the struggle is met with understanding, relief and hope, and the chance to reclaim the moments eczema has taken away.

Be the reason we don’t stop.

The difference your gift could make:

£5 could provide 4 fidget toys to help children break the scratch cycle, giving little hands a break and making space for play.

£10 could fund 8 cooling gel packs to soothe inflamed, itchy skin, helping families get the rest they desperately need.

£15 could provide a full welcome pack of practical tools, resources and reassurance, helping a family move from crisis to confidence.

Families tell us the life-changing difference this support makes:

“Completely blown away by how supportive and proactive EOS has been. Our welcome pack came at such a challenging time, so it really gave a lot of hope.”

Every family deserves support, guidance, and hope.

The EOS Team

Our Christmas poem, The Itch Before Christmas, continues to touch hearts across the EOS community. It tells the story of a child with eczema whose Christmas wish is simple:

“For Christmas this year, all I want is a friend.”

You’ve seen the story brought to life by Clare Elsom’s magical illustrations and heard the voices of some incredible children we know who have eczema. Their bravery and honesty show what it’s really like to live with eczema - the sleepless nights, the flares, the moments of feeling left out - and how much difference friendships can make.

At EOS, we know that friendship and connection are life changing. That’s why we run the High 5 Club, our safe, online space where children with eczema can meet others who understand them, form friendships, build confidence, and simply feel normal.

You can make this wish a reality

Every donation brings children closer to friendship and support:£8 can fund a High 5 Club session for one child this Christmas. A monthly gift of £8 can help a child attend sessions all year, giving them confidence, connection and joy long after the holidays.

👉 *Donate here to give the gift of friendship today *👈

Thank you for helping us make sure no child with eczema has to face the holidays alone.

Your support brings smiles, laughter, and real friendships - gifts that last far beyond Christmas.
