Be part of the solution and make a difference
Dear Reader
In this edition we have focused on change and innovation in care for people living with psoriatic disease. You’ll see on page 3 how national NHS plans and neighbourhood health frameworks are reshaping where and how care is delivered, with more support intended closer to home.
On pages 4-5 you’ll also find clear guidance that challenges harmful myths about sunbeds, explains the difference between medical phototherapy and commercial tanning, and highlights the importance of early melanoma detection.
We explore on pages 6-7 advances in treatment for psoriatic arthritis and the growing move towards more personalised, evidence-based care.
Throughout this issue, particularly on pages 14-15, we show why having patient organisations in the room – alongside clinicians and policymakers – is essential if lived experience is to influence how healthcare is planned, delivered and improved.
