Due to the huge success of Walk for Skin 2007 and 2008, we are delighted to confirm that the annual event, organised by the British Skin Foundation, will take place again this spring. As in previous years, Salts Healthcare is sponsoring the West Midlands event.

Walk for Skin is a series of short sponsored walks at a variety of museums, country parks and stately homes across the UK. The walks are between three and six miles long, are suitable for all ages and abilities, and should take around an hour to complete. Register for FREE at http://www.walkforskin.org.uk/ or call 020 7391 6341.

The unique event is organised by the British Skin Foundation and is supported by 15 affiliated charities to raise both awareness of, and money for, people with skin diseases.
