Do you live in the UK?  Are you going through TSW?
Please consider getting involved in this important work!


 

Simon Way, the husband of one of our community members has heroically begun the development of a TSW Photo Awareness Campaign in order to raise awareness in the UK and beyond.  We are so grateful for his willingness to use his skillset to help get the word out about this preventable condition.  Please read his message below and, if you are able, get involved.  Together we are stronger, together we can end this!
 

"As many of you know, my wife Laura suffered from a horrendous condition called Topical Steroid Withdrawal, a condition that saw her lose he skin due to the over prescription of steroid creams, which are so freely prescribed without any warnings of the dangers. Like so many others, I was left angry and frustrated at just how topical steroid creams can destroy the person I love, right in front of my eyes. TSW is a horrendous, arduous journey that nobody deserves to go through, and I want to raise awareness of the danger of steroid creams to stop many others suffering the fate we did.

I'm looking for people to sit for a portrait much like @louigi.skin did here in the first of my shots for this series, please get in touch if you would be willing to have your picture taken for this and are based in the UK, hopefully together we can raise awareness and our voices will be heard. Please get in touch simon@simonway.co.uk // 07971954733 //@simonwayphoto on Instagram or DM. Thank you."
