Summer Safety

We're all hoping for some hot weather in 2022! And we're looking forward to spending more time outdoors in the warmth, but remember to stay safe.

Five ways to protect your skin and stay safe when it's sunny!

  • Find shade, prevent glare: When possible, stay out of the sun between 10am - 3pm. And wear a cap, long sleeves and sunglasses
  • Cover up and use sun cream: Wear loose fitting clothes / long sleeves and regularly re-apply sun cream with at least SPF 15 and of a 4 or 5 star rating
  • Keep hydrated…drink lots of water throughout the day
  • Protect your head: If you don't have to wear a hard hat, wear a cap - don't forget to protect your neck, face and ears
  • Be skin safe: Check your skin regularly for any changes, especially to moles. Talk to your doctor about any concerns as soon as possible.
