📢 Today is Inside Out Day!

Hundreds are turning their clothes inside out today for everyone living with butterfly skin. And so are we. 🦋

We’re in the Oireachtas today presenting the EB Butterfly Review to government, showing where EB care in Ireland needs change. #InsideOutForEB #EBButterflyReview

Behind every statistic is a person with EB living with daily pain.

Today, their voices are being heard at Leinster House.

Ring-fenced, annual funding would make a world of difference to the EB community.

We are working with the Government and the HSE to make it happen.

"Carers often feel like prisoners because care is fragmented and fragile.” - Liz Collins, mother of Claudia, who lives with EB.

We are at the AV room today to present the EB Butterfly Review to Government.

“I often have to borrow bandages from my son.” - Amanda, living with EB.

No one should have to fight this hard for basic care.

“You are punished in every single way.” - Amanda, living with EB.

Powerful testimony at Leinster House today.

“This is not just a report, it’s a lifeline for the EB community.”

We are asking government for:

-Expedite the 700k funding to improve support & services.
-Reduce the financial burden through a national bandage scheme.
-Improve access to the long term illness scheme & medical card.
-Build awareness amongst wider healthcare workforce.
