Jasmine has epidermolysis bullosa (EB), an incredibly painful genetic condition that causes her skin to blister and tear at the slightest touch.
Even gentle contact can cause wounds.
Infections are a constant fear.
Dressing changes can take hours and are agonising.
Imagine not being able to cuddle your own child when they’re crying in pain for fear of hurting them even more.
This is Jasmine’s reality. And it’s the reality for thousands of families across the UK.
But now there is real hope
Thanks to supporters like you, you are funding pioneering research focused on repurposing drugs that already exist for other skin conditions, to find treatments that could reduce pain and improve quality of life for people with all types of EB.
This approach is:
- Faster than developing new drugs from scratch
- More cost‑effective
- Already showing real promise
- All it takes is one treatment to change everything.
