Where we work

Ichthyosis Support Group has been working hard for over 20 years to make life better for its members and everyone affected by ichthyosis. Our charity is passionate and determined to improve the quality of life for people who have to cope with this very difficult and debilitating long-term health condition. It is incredibly tough on both the person with ichthyosis, especially children, and their families.

We provide an extensive range of ichthyosis information and advice, services and resources, which we distribute across our various communication channels and networks.
