Eczema Conference 2026

Programme overview

Eczema affects around one third of the UK population and poses a significant challenge to the healthcare system. It leads to frequent healthcare visits, contributes to the development of allergic diseases, and has a major impact on quality of life. Across healthcare services, there is real potential to improve how eczema is recognised, managed, and treated. Every professional has a role to play – whether by reducing care inequalities, preventing complications, or providing better support for those most affected.

This conference is run in partnership with consultants from the St John’s Institute, and offers opportunities to meaningfully up-date your practice.

• Eczema Development and Prevention: Latest insights on early triggers and genetic factors like filaggrin
• Improving Diagnosis: Practical guidance on distinguishing eczema from similar skin conditions
• Care Pathway Improvements: Updates on evolving eczema management in primary and community care
