Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Psoriasis is a common skin condition affecting 2-3% of the population of the United Kingdom and Ireland in fact 4% of europeans suffer from it.
It is very simply a speeding up of the usual replacement processes of the skin. Normally skin cells take about 21-28 days to replace themselves; in psoriasis this process is greatly accelerated, and skin cells can be replaced every 2-6 days. This results in an accumulation of skin cells on the surface of the skin, in the form of a psoriatic plaque. This process is the same wherever it occurs on the body.

I have suffered the effects First hand when the patches first appeared nearly 8 years ago were it got so bad  i would not leave the house the state of depression was low, i battled on to the state were it is under control.
