04.01.2022 We all love this time of year in Australia and after such a big 2020, everyone deserves to get outside and enjoy the sun this summer. But before you do, listen to this important message from our PM Scott Morrison on the launch day of National Skin Cancer Action Week. Tens of thousands of Aussies get treated for skin cancer every year it can and does kill. Take care in the sun this summer and Slip, Slop, Slap, Seek, Slide.... What’s your favourite outdoor summer activity? Let us know in the comments below!

03.01.2022 Once you hear the jingle, it’s hard to get it out of your head. Cancer Council first brought Sid Seagull onto our screens in the 1980s, and today, his message is as important as ever. This National Skin Cancer Action Week, we’re teaming with the Australasian College of Dermatologists to bring him back and encourage all those ‘80s kids who are now parents themselves to stay SunSmart this summer. ... A lot has changed since the ‘80s, but it’s still the same sun. UV radiation is just as dangerous, and sun protection is still the best defence against skin cancer.
