AND STAY SAFE IN THE SUN
At Skcin we are dedicated to preventing
skin cancer through education...
SKIN CANCER IS THE MOST
COMMON CANCER IN THE UK
Skin cancer kills more people in the UK
than Australia - the UV capital of the world!
RATES OF SKIN CANCER
ARE RISING FASTER THAN
ANY OTHER CANCER
and it is now one of the biggest cancer
killers in the 15-34 age group!
ALMOST ALL SKIN CANCERS
ARE CAUSED BY OVER
EXPOSURE TO UV
That means that almost all skin cancers
are preventable by being sun savvy!
THAT'S WHY SKCIN ARE
DEDICATED TO PROMOTING
PREVENTION AND
EARLY DETECTION
Through national educational,
accreditation schemes, campaigns,
partnerships and initiatives...
OUR OBJECTIVE:
TO REVERSE THE SOARING
RATES OF SKIN CANCER FOR
OUR FUTURE GENERATIONS
Knowledge is power. It's time to make
a change. Education is key, a culture
change is required and that's our mission.
There are many ways you can get involved with Skcin and help us to raise awareness on sun safety and the early detection of skin cancers in the fight against the UK's most common cancer.
As a relatively small charity we appreciate any help you can give, whether it be recommending or promoting one of our national accreditation schemes, taking part in a fundraising event, handing out our educational literature or simply donating, it can make a real difference!
