SUMMARY:National Eczema Week
DESCRIPTION:National Eczema Week is from 12th-19th September this year. \nThe More than “Just an Itch” campaign will highlight the debilitating nature of #Eczema and its profound effect on people’s lives\, shining a light on the mental health impacts of eczema that are so often overlooked. \nA recently conducted online patient survey to better understand how eczema affects people’s emotional\, social and personal well-being\, shockingly showed 91% of respondents said their eczema made them feel self-conscious or embarrassed\, and 83% were envious of those who do not have eczema. Around 4 in 5 respondents thought that eczema reduces patients’ quality of life. \nLiving with eczema can be physically uncomfortable\, but it also takes an emotional toll. The persistent itching\, pain\, and visible appearance of eczema patches can lead to feelings of self-consciousness\, low self-esteem\, and social anxiety. People with eczema may experience frustration\, embarrassment\, along with greater anxiety and depression due to the constant struggle with their skin condition – it really is #MoreThanJustAnItch. \nThrough sharing stories of eczema patients’ experiences\, resilience\, and coping mechanisms\, we can help reduce the stigma associated with the condition and foster an environment of empathy and understanding. We also want to encourage and empower people to open up and share how they really feel about living with this long-term condition. \nSource:  National Eczema Society

SUMMARY:Positive Thinking Day
DESCRIPTION:Its Positive Thinking Day 🙂 \nNegative thinking has a way of sapping away a person’s self-worth and distorting a person’s view of the world. It also has a tendency of poisoning everything in that person that’s good and decent. Fortunately\, that’s a process that can be stopped with a little bit of positive thinking. Positive thinking\, when properly applied with purpose\, can help a person feel better about themselves and can make them feel like the best version of themselves. And that’s why Positive Thinking Day is such an important day. \n  \nThis unofficial holiday falls on the 13th of September and is designed to help everyone replace their negative thinking with more positive thoughts. \n#BeMorePositive #PositiveThinkingDay

SUMMARY:World Alzheimer's Day
DESCRIPTION:Today is #WorldAlzheimersDay. \nIt’s an international awareness day aimed at reducing the stigma around Alzheimer’s and raising awareness of the disease. \nDid you know that while Alzheimer’s Disease is often associated with ageing\, approximately 1-in-20 people with the disease is under the age of 65? \nGlobally\, dementia is one of the biggest challenges we face\, with nearly 50 million people living with dementia worldwide.

There may be no cure for Alzheimer’s\, but it can be treated to reduce some symptoms. \n#AlzheimersAwareness #MentalHealthAwareness #DementiaAwareness \nSource: NHS \n  \nWorld Alzheimer’s Day | Alzheimer’s Society (alzheimers.org.uk)

SUMMARY:World Sight Day
DESCRIPTION:World Sight Day is 8th October 2026\, and focuses the world’s attention on the importance of eye care in young people and inspiring children everywhere to love their eyes. \nTogether\, The International Agency of the Prevention of Blindness are creating a world where every child has eye health that is accessible\, available and affordable. \nStarting with a groundswell of young people who are inspired to make their vision a priority. A generation of children who have all the information they need to protect their eyes and\, crucially\, take the steps needed to look after their vision – from reducing screen time and placing importance on being outside through to seeking help for any ailments and discomfort. \nThey campaign to ensure that children not only understand the importance of caring for their eye health but are also free from the weight of any social stigma associated with wearing glasses and other corrective treatments. \nThrough these efforts\, governments and those of influence are listening like never before – recognising that early intervention and regular eye health is critical to unlocking education opportunities and future economic potential. \nJoin them and millions of children globally in making the case loudly and repeatedly that eye health in young people is not an optional extra. It is vital to everything. \nThis would be a good time to get your eyes checked. The doctor will examine the condition of the blood vessels in your retina and check the overall functioning of your eyes and vision. Go to your nearest eye clinic and also motivate your family members and friends to get their eyes checked. \n#LoveYourEyes #EyeHealth #IAPB \nSource: World Sight Day – International Agency of the Prevention of Blindness (iapb.world)
