A hospital in Singapore is running a day camp for children who suffer from eczema. The KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital run a one day camp to help children learn about treatment. But even more importantly, to help them deal with the emotional aspects of living with eczema. The camp allow children and their families to socialise with other sufferers and their families. I think it is a great idea. It can feel very isolating as a child to feel ‘different’. To feel accepted can seem very important to a child. The camp also gets families talking. That support can be so beneficial. It would be great if other camps like this appear internationally.
