Life and Prevention
The most important way to prevent skin cancer is to protect your skin from the harmful effects of the sun's rays. This leaflet gives tips on how to protect your skin from the harmful effects of sunlight. In particular, it is very important to protect children from the sun. The delicate skin of a child is more sensitive to sun damage than the skin of an adult. This damage can lead to skin cancer in later life. You and your children can still enjoy sunshine and the outdoors. This leaflet aims to help you to do so in safety
