AUSTRALIAN MELANOMA RESEARCH FOUNDATION
Did you know that melanoma is the most common cancer in 15-39 year olds?
It is the start of another school year and with many weeks of warm weather to come, the Australian Melanoma Research Foundation (AMRF) is again drawing attention to the dangers of overexposure to the sun and the associated risks of skin damage and melanoma. As such, we feel strongly about educating students to be sun safe.
The most important years for sun protection are during childhood. Excessive sun exposure before the age of 18 greatly increases the chance of getting melanoma in later life because damaged cells have more time to develop into cancer. The greatest need for sun safety occurs during the time of year when the sun’s ultraviolet radiation is strongest, namely September through to April in South Australia.
We are inviting all schools to join us and spread the word by student leaders of the school considering the AMRF to be one of their chosen charities when conducting their fundraising activities throughout the school year. We feel this is a very effective way to align with the school policy of wearing a hat & sunscreen.
Adolescents are particularly vulnerable to sun damage because of the amount of outdoor activity typically enjoyed at this stage of life and also their deliberate choice to actively seek the sun to get a tan.
Avoiding over-exposure to the sun is the best defence! Reduce your risk with these simple tips:
- Wear protective clothing: hat with brim, a shirt with sleeves and sunglasses
Use a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30+ and cover all exposed skin and REAPPLY
Stay out of the sun during the middle of the day (10am—4pm) – seek shaded areas during recess and lunch
