Skin cancer prevention
The British Association of Dermatologists reminded healthcare professionals that sun protection measures should be used by everyone from April until September, rather than only in the summer months.
Daily use of a sunscreen with a minimum UVB SPF of 15 and a four or five star rating for UVA protection on all areas of skin that are not covered by clothing is advised. People using facial moisturisers are encouraged to choose one with a minimum SPF of 15.
Don’t worry, you can come back and finish the assessment in your own time.
