Fundraise for us

Nina will be running the Manchester Half Marathon to raise money for the Psoriasis Association.

She shares "Psoriasis is something I never truly understood until it became part of my life. What started as a stressful period and a seemingly simple sore throat ended up triggering something I’d never imagined: psoriasis. I had never heard of it in depth before, and when it hit me, I felt completely lost and confused.

I went from doctor to doctor, trying to understand what was happening to my body. Each visit left me with more questions than answers. Despite my efforts, I never really felt fully heard or understood by the healthcare professionals I turned to. To this day, I still live with psoriasis, and though I've learned to manage it better, the emotional and physical toll it takes is something I continue to navigate.

The hardest part for me has been the effect it’s had on my confidence. There were times when I felt so self-conscious about my skin that I wanted to lock myself away, too embarrassed to face the world. But through it all, my family and friends have been my rock especially my mum and dad. Their amazing support has been the one constant that has kept me going. I truly don’t think I would have made it through this challenging journey without them.

That's why I’m asking for your support today. The Psoriasis Association has been instrumental in raising awareness, providing resources, and supporting those like me who live with this condition every day. Every donation will go towards research, support, and education, helping others understand psoriasis better and improving the lives of those affected.

Thank you for being part of this journey with me. Your support means the world."

This October, Chris is taking on the challenge of running the Basingstoke Half Marathon — not just for the miles, but for a meaningful cause close to his heart.

Chris said, "I’m raising funds for the Psoriasis Association , and every step I take is in support of those who need it most. Whether you donate £1 or £10, your support will help make a real difference. Please consider sponsoring me — together, we can turn effort into impact!

I know the impact Psoriasis can have on you as I have had it for over 13 years, every little really does help this wonderful charity."

"I’m Lily, and I’ve been living with psoriasis for a couple of years now. The more I talk about it, the more I realise how many others are affected, including people close to me.

On October 5th, I’m running the Chester Marathon to raise money for the Psoriasis Association. Running has never been my thing, even though I keep trying, so this will definitely be a challenge.

Psoriasis is a long-term autoimmune condition that causes patches of skin to become red, flaky, and painful. It affects around 2 million people in the UK.

By raising funds, I hope to help the Psoriasis Association continue providing support, advice, and funding for research into better treatments. If you can, please support my run — every donation helps (and might even help me get up and go for a run)."

Katie is challenging herself to walk at least 3km every day, whatever the weather, to raise funds for The Psoriasis Association, with the hope of completing a race later in the year.

In 2019, Katie noticed early signs of psoriasis and a year later she was diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis after developing pain and stiffness in her hand.

Katie will also be donating all profits from chronic illness and psoriasis-related items available on her online shop to The Psoriasis Association. More details can be found on her Instagram @KaylewCreative.

Support Katie in her challenge by donating via her JustGiving page or keep an eye out for the item launch on her online shop.

Good luck Katie!

In July, Devpal took on the immense Nijmegen 4 Day Marches challenge (Netherlands) and walked 40km per day over 4 consecutive days to raise funds for the Psoriasis Association, in loving memory of his father who lived with severe psoriasis during the later part of his life.

On mentioning how the condition affected his father, Devpal said "It had affected his confidence, his daily comfort, and most importantly his wellbeing. Despite everything, he faced it with an enormous amount of strength and resilience. Whilst he is now no longer with us, his courage however inspires me every step of the way."

Devpal has raised an amazing £2,600. If you would like to give him a boost, you can support him by making a donation to Devpal's JustGiving Page which is still live.

Go Devpal!
