Together, we can create a better world for people with Scleroderma and Raynaud’s.
We need you to continue to raise your hands and help increase awareness and understanding of Raynaud’s and why it is important that everyone knows the signs and symptoms to look out for.
Raynaud's (ray-NOSE) disease causes some areas of
your body — such as your fingers and toes — to feel
numb and cold in response to cold temperatures or
stress. In Raynaud's disease, smaller arteries that supply
blood to your skin become narrow, limiting blood flow to
affected areas (vasospasm).Raynaud's phenomenon is
common and does not usually cause severe problems.
You can often treat the symptoms yourself by keeping
warm. Sometimes it can be a sign of a more serious
condition
Raynaud's affects your blood circulation. When you're cold, anxious or stressed, your fingers and toes may change colour. Other symptoms can include:

Safer Internet Day is an event, organised by the UK Safer Internet Centre, which aims to promote safe, responsible and positive use of internet technology. It involves lots of local and national organisations coming together to raise awareness of correct internet practices. They look at lots of topics including consent, ownership and data privacy, and it runs with the slogan, ‘Together for a better internet’. They also raise issues about cyberbullying, digital identity and social networks. The main goal of Safer Internet Day is to raise awareness and start a conversation about internet safety. One company cannot make the internet wholly safe, but lots of people working together can have a big impact. Its aim is to make a safer and better internet for everyone, especially children and young people.
Safer Internet Day is celebrated every year on a Tuesday in mid-February. In 2022, it will be on the 8th of February
Safer Internet Day was the brainchild of the EU
SafeBorders project and was targeted by the connected
InSafe network as a multi-national event, which
highlights the topical issues surrounding the internet.
By the year 2009, Safer Internet Day had expanded from
Europe, under the guidance of more than 100 global
Safer Internet Day Committees, to have a worldwide
presence. It is now celebrated in over 150 countries
across the globe!
Staying safe on the internet is a vital part of modern technology use. Here are our top tips for aiding you and your children in this process: Monitor your child’s internet use and keep a track of their browser history. Make sure you choose strong passwords for your secure information. Keep your privacy settings high to ensure your security. Ensure you're up to date with all the latest security software. Remember to be as vigilant on your mobile as your desktop or laptop. Don't click on links you don't trust.
