INFORMATION FOR PARENTS/CARERS
Newington CEP School are currently working towards renewing our Sun Safe Schools Accreditation. The accreditation programme has been developed by national melanoma and skin cancer charity ‘Skcin’ to assist schools in their duty of care to safeguard children against the dangers of Ultraviolet Radiation (UVR) and educate early learners on the importance of sun safety to influence behaviours and prevent skin cancer.
Newington CEP School are proud to be working with national charity Skcin to raise awareness about:
The importance of sun safety
How to prevent skin cancer by adopting simple sun safe strategies
How to protect and check your family’s skin
How to spot the early signs and symptoms to promote early detection and diagnosis
Please download the ‘Sun Safety and Skin Cancer’ information booklet below, for vital information on the prevention and early detection of the UK’s most common and fastest rising cancer.
Together we can make a difference and save lives.
