Living with eczema can be challenging, but you’re not alone. AFSA has a team of patient advocates dedicated to raising awareness, supporting those affected, and driving positive change for eczema sufferers nationwide. Our mission is to empower individuals, caregivers, families, and communities through education, advocacy, and access to resources that improve eczema care and quality of life for those who suffer from this chronic condition.
Meet Our Advocates
We’re proud to introduce our two passionate eczema advocates who are making a real difference in the lives of many:
Lynne Niemann combines her passion for helping others with 4 decades of lived experience with severe eczema. Her driving force is to dispel myths, promote effective management strategies, and connect sufferers with support networks.
Claudene Botha brings years of personal experience with eczema as a caregiver to her son. She is deeply committed and passionate about public education and driving change within the healthcare sector.
Dr Suretha Kannenberg is AFSA’s partner and a dermatologist with a deep commitment to eczema care. Working alongside Lynne and Claudene, she helps guide the Atopic Eczema Online Facebook Support Group, ensuring that members have access to reliable information, supportive discussion, and a safe space to feel understood.
