Sun Awareness Week, 6th – 12th May

Posted by: Victoria Hamerton - Posted on:


Sun Awareness Week is run with the British Association of Dermatologists, and they want your help! Looking after your skin is important no matter what the weather, but making sure you use appropriate sun protection is vital in the sun, and this can help to prevent skin cancers and other conditions from developing. Help to spread the word! The NHS has sound advice for us on how we should ensure we stay safe in the sun. The sun in the UK is strongest between March and October, so it’s time to think about how we manage our sunscreen routine, making sure we stay in the shade especially between the hours of 11 and 3.
