As May marks both Melanoma Awareness Month and the beginning of summer weather, it is imperative that our small island community be reminded of the importance of sun safety at this time of year.☀️ Here are 4 simple ways you can prevent skin cancer:
1. Apply sunscreen 20 minutes before going outside and re-apply every 2 hours. Broad Spectrum SPF30 or higher is recommended.
2. Limit long periods in the sun between 10am and 4pm when the sun’s rays are strongest.
3. Wear a hat and sunglasses to protect your face, ears and eyes.
4. Please visit your GP if you notice any skin changes to rule out cancer.
