Our Partners

Our vitiligo partnerships and affiliations reflect how we work with clinical bodies, regulators, researchers and support organisations to inform our work and support people affected by vitiligo. These relationships help ensure our information is accurate, up to date and shaped by both clinical expertise and lived experience.


Clinical and Research Partnerships in Vitiligo

We engage with clinical, regulatory and health system bodies to ensure our work reflects current evidence, policy and clinical guidance. This includes contributing lived‑experience insight where appropriate, staying informed about changes to treatment pathways, and supporting awareness of vitiligo within wider dermatology services.
