DEBRA, founded in 1978, is the national charity that funds research and healthcare to support individuals and families affected by Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) – a group of genetic skin conditions that cause the skin to blister and tear at the slightest touch.

There are many different types of EB, ranging from the mildest, in which only the big toes are affected, to the most severe, which can have a devastating effect on any part of the body, causing lifelong disability and pain, and in some cases can sadly be fatal.

We have a vision of a world where no one suffers from the painful genetic skin blistering condition, EB.  And with your help, we can make this vision a reality.

For people whose skin doesn’t work – we do.
