Story
This Psoriasis Awareness Week we're inviting you to take part in a new challenge: The #PsoActive29
Did you know that moving more could have a positive impact on your psoriasis/psoriatic arthritis? Not only that, but it can also improve mood, weight and heart health too!
That is why were inviting you to take on a new fundraising challenge in aid of our 29th Psoriasis Awareness Week: The #PsoActive29. Help us raise vital funds and awareness whilst improving your health and wellbeing too!
The #PsoActive29 will launch on the first day of Psoriasis Awareness Week (29th October). To get involved all you have to do is pick any activity around the number 29 and complete your challenge between the 29th October and 29th November. Remember, an activity can be anything that gets you moving and picking something you enjoy will make you more likely to stick to the challenge. It could be gardening an hour a day for 29 days, dancing to your favourite song for 29 minutes, or even doing 29 hula hoops! Take a look at some of our ideas for inspiration.
Sign up and a member of our fundraising team will be in touch to help cheer you on and send you one of our iconic purple Psoriasis Association t-shirts!
Psoriasis Awareness Week
Psoriasis Awareness Week happens every year during the last week in October. It aims to raise awareness of psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis among those with the condition and the general public, and raise awareness of the Psoriasis Association and the services we offer to support people with psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis to live well.
"Raising awareness makes our lives easier. Those awkward explanations, the long sleeves, the covered legs, the long hair and the feelings of disgust with ourselves are diminished by educating people about what it is that afflicts us. To be treated like everyone else is the goal, raising awareness can achieve that and enhance life for us all. - Russ Cowper, Psoriasis Association Member
