Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) is a group of genetic skin conditions that cause the skin to blister and tear at the slightest touch. Those born with EB have skin so fragile they are called 'butterfly children' – their skin is quite simply as fragile as the wing of a butterfly.There is currently no known cure for EB. At DEBRA, our work is focused on funding research to change this, while also supporting people living with EB to enhance their quality of life through improved healthcare, access to information and respite care.
Dementia Adventure is an award-winning charity with a vision for a more active and fulfilled life for everyone living with dementia. Research shows that connection to nature and outoor activity has significant health and wellbeing benefits for people with dementia and we've proven that with the right support, it is possible to access those benefits in enjoyable ways.
We provide supported holidays, dementia training for family and friends and training for professionals and organisations.
We aim to deliver our holidays to as many people who need them as possible. We set up the Dementia Adventure Support Fund to make sure this includes those who wouldn't be able to fund a break on their own. The Fund can be used to contribute towards the cost of a holiday itself or towards something that is creating a barrier to someone taking a holiday, like transport or appropriate clothing.
