SKCIN TO HOST 2009 SKIN CANCER FORUM
Ask any healthcare professional or charity worker concerned with the problem of the soaring rate of skin cancer in the UK, and they will all agree that the fragmentation in terms of the miscellaneous nature of skin cancer organisations represents a major problem. Clearly one strong and effective voice is required in order to bring about a significant change in regard to the education of the general public.
The establishment of an umbrella Group representing Health, Education, Commerce and the various skin cancer charities is the main objective of the event to be held at The Belfry in March 2009.
