Presentation 2: Sun Safe Schools by Skcin, Marie Tudor
Sun Safe schools was developed by national skin cancer charity Skcin to provide primary schools with all the tools, guidance, resources and support they need to safeguard children in their care against over-exposure to UV during school hours and empower children to take charge of their skin health through educational intervention. Sun Safety is now included in the PHSE curriculum, and this accreditation provides everything a school needs to keep their pupils safe and fulfil their duty of care and all completely FREE to take part Please join our army of 6000 Sun safe schools and sign up today www.sunsafeschools.co.uk
For more information, please contact Christina.Driver@skcin.org
For early years and nursery settings we have our nursery accreditation on www.sunsafenurseries.co.uk
I hope the promo video was of interest and we will release that for hosting anywhere possible on 01 April 2023. We would love for some support with the video.
As for info about the charity, I have attached the About us flyer. I am happy for anyone to engage with and reach out to me to answers questions or look to collaborate.
An attendee did ask about the guidance and where this is relating to sun safety. The document is attached and it on page 49 under health and prevention. Please let me know if you need anything else. Kind regards, Marie
