Skin cancer awareness month
May is skin cancer awareness month which is supported by Macmillan and the British Association of Dermatologists and since we’ve been enjoying an early summer heatwave, it’s useful to think about sun safety. Whether you are directly affected by skin cancer, or you just want to find out more, Macmillan has information that can help, including answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about skin cancer. The campaign also aims to teach prevention, to raise awareness of the dangers of burning and excessive tanning, and to discourage people from using sunbeds.
