Dear ILDS Members, Friends and Colleagues

As we near the end of 2023, I wanted to extend my heartfelt gratitude to each of you for contributing to the remarkable journey of the dermatology community this year. The dedication of our members and volunteers has been pivotal to the ILDS' many successes, fostering a collaborative spirit that made 2023 truly memorable.

Look out for our January ILDS Newsletter, a reflection on 2023's highlights and a sneak peek into the exciting developments of 2024. It remains your go-to source for the latest news and updates from the ILDS.

Serving as ILDS President since July has been a privilege, and I eagerly anticipate meeting more outstanding ILDS Members as we work towards #SkinHealth4theWorld.

Our work would not be possible without the support of our industry partners and member society donors. We are grateful to them for their continued partnership and for our strengthened collaborations with Patient Organisations.  

OFFICE OPENING: The ILDS Office, situated in London, England, will be observing the upcoming bank holidays and many of our dedicated staff team will be taking well-deserved leave during the holiday period. Therefore, you may experience a delay in response times from 25th December to 2nd January. We appreciate your understanding and patience during this time.

With best wishes for a very happy holiday season,

Prof Henry W. Lim

ILDS President
