We’re excited to bring you our latest webinar series, ‘Exploring Eczema’ with National Eczema Society’s Dermatology Nurse Advisor, Julie Van Onselen. In this session we will be exploring how to manage eczema in school-age children.

Do you know what triggers your eczema? Do you know the differences between irritants and allergies? Eczema is a very individual condition, some triggers, like soap are universal for everyone with eczema; but other triggers, like diet only affect some people with eczema. Eczema triggers are all around us in our environment. This webinar will explore the difference between irritants and allergies, giving tips for adapting our environment to try and reduce triggers for everyone with eczema.

This talk will provide practical, evidence-based advice to help attendees effectively control their symptoms and minimise flare-ups.

This session will be hosted twice, one midday and one early evening slot, to ensure everyone who wishes to attend, can. If you are unable to attend either session, we will be sharing a recording of the session after the event that will be available to watch on our website.

The webinar will be recorded and will be made available to watch afterwards. To be able to participate in the webinar you need to register in advance and join via Teams on the day.
