Nursem has supported 250,000 NHS nurses with their hand cream – and here’s how you can help
HARD working nurses and doctors across the country have been working all hours to keep us safe during the Covid-19 pandemic.
Hand cream brand Nursem is one of the many brands who now wants to give back, and to date has supported 250,000 nurses.
To give back to those who look after us, Jonny Philp, husband of paediatric nurse Antonia, recruited a panel of nurses and teamed up with Newcastle Science City to develop Nursem.
Made with a range of specialist formulas, with plant-derived active ingredients to soothe and protect overworked skin, Nursem has been developed with nurses for nurses – and many more hard working hands.
The formula looks to combat the effects of relentless hand washing, with its dermatologically tested formula offering natural intensive care, and it’s been a hit with more than sixty five star reviews on Boots.com.

Whats more every time someone buys a Nursem product they’ll give a month’s worth of free hand cream to an NHS nurse or midwife.
And since 2019, they’ve provided 250,000 donations of its hand cream to NHS frontline nurses and midwives to date.
Co-founder of Nursem, Antonia Philp, also an NHS paediatric nurse, said: “We’re overjoyed to have helped over 250,000 NHS nurses across the country so far, which coincides perfectly with International Nurses Day this month.
“We know 87% nurses, like me, experience first-hand the awful effects that contact dermatitis as a result of excessive hand washing can cause, it’s a widespread problem and something we’re passionate about, working towards our goal of giving free hand care to every nurse and midwife in the UK!”
