Have you ever stopped to think about what you want more of in your life? ๐Ÿ’›

During the Day 2 pool party at the DEBRA Care Conference, our Find Your Feelings booth invited participants to do just that.

Visitors explored our emotion cards, picked up meaningful bookmarks, and created their own intention bottles.

Using herbs like lavender, lemongrass, and othersโ€”each carrying its own symbolic meaningโ€”they filled their bottles with the things they wanted to welcome into their lives: joy, love, peace, strength, health, hope, and so much more.

Sometimes, the smallest moments create the biggest impact. โœจ

If you could create your own intention bottle, what would you fill it with? ๐ŸŒฟ
Let us know in the comments.

Thanks to for making this amazing video ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ“ธ

Flashback to an incredible weekend at the DEBRA Ireland Family Weekend! ๐Ÿ’™
Youth Council leaders Toni, Ida and Lena were invited to speak about the DIYC, encouraging more young people to get involved and highlighting what young people living with EB are capable of.
We shared our lived experiencesโ€”from building relationships and pursuing careers to self-acceptance and finding love. It was an honour to connect with families, inspire the next generation, and show the power of young voices.

Meet Andreas, 32, from Berlin โ€” living with junctional EB and making a powerful impact in the EB community. ๐Ÿ’œ
His journey with DEBRA Germany began as a patient and volunteer, later becoming Vice Chairman in 2021. Since May this year, heโ€™s taken on the role of Managing Director of DEBRA Germany. He also contributes his voice and experience as a member of the DI Youth Council.
With a background in social sciences, Andreas is passionate about creating meaningful connections and real outcomes for people living with EB. Heโ€™s excited to join the DEBRA International Executive Committee, where heโ€™ll help shape initiatives that truly reflect the needs of our community.
In his free time, youโ€™ll find him reading, traveling, and spending time with his poodle, Alto. ๐Ÿฉโœจ

๐ŸŒ๐Ÿ’œ Inside Out for EB Awareness Week!

Delegates from around the world attending the World Skin Summit in Cape Town joined together to turn their jackets inside out โ€” in support of the Inside Out Campaign for Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB) Awareness Week, 25โ€“31 October.

Wearing your clothes inside out shines a light on the daily reality of those of us living with EB, often wearing our clothing this way to avoid painful seams against our fragile skin.

This simple act reminds us that EB is more than a skin condition โ€” it affects life from the inside out. ๐Ÿ’œ

Join the movement, share your Inside Out moment, and help raise awareness and support for those living with EB.
