Joining the BSCA means accessing a network of hundreds of medical professionals across the UK sharing an interest in contact dermatitis. We have regular educational meetings and courses in Manchester and London. We publish BSCA recommended baseline and specialist allergen series.

You also support our work trialling of ‘new’ allergens as well as keeping our site up to date with patient information sheets.

We have a vibrant clinical forum: we would encourage you to log-on to link with other members, post questions and discuss cases with colleagues: ideal for those tricky cases or hard to explain results.

Membership is currently £35 a year and you will need the support of two other members.

Quote from a positive member “As a nurse BSCA membership has allowed me to meet other mecical professionals and specialists. Their training courses have provided me with the latest contact dermatitis knowledge to help patients manage their skin complaints. I’ve learn about patch testing and other techniques which I feel more confident to discuss with patients in my care and print off patient sheets from the website.”

Membership of the BSCA is open to medical and nursing professionals with an interest in contact dermatitis. The annual membership fee is collected by the British Association of Dermatologists (BAD) on behalf of the BSCA.
