The Sun Safe Nurseries accreditation programme has been developed by national skin cancer and melanoma UK charity, SKCIN. We are a specialist skin cancer awareness charity, formed by the family of Karen Clifford (the KC in SKCIN) who passed from the illness in 2005. We operate five national, educational intervention programmes that are dedicated to embedding the prevention and early detection of melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancer into the heart of communities nationwide.
With around 90% of all skin cancers preventable and early diagnosis vital, education is key to combating the soaring rates of skin cancer in the UK. We focus on pioneering, proactive intervention working with key ‘at risk’ and ‘influential’ audiences on a national scale. Our suite of five bespoke, accreditation programmes provide nationally accessible solutions for primary and pre-schools, employers of outdoor workers, the hair, health and beauty industry and allied healthcare professionals. Our industry recognised, supported and endorsed programmes provide trusted advice and comprehensive, quality resources that are infiltrating communities and making an impact nationwide.
