OUR WORK, REACH AND RECOGNITION
We don’t do here today, gone tomorrow campaigns - we are in it for the long-run!
Our suite of five, bespoke, national accreditation programmes that infiltrate key ‘at risk’ and ‘influential’ target sectors, provide robust solutions with longevity. They require continued commitment from both SKCIN and programme stakeholders which is paramount in providing ongoing reinforcement, growing knowledge and driving behavioural and attitudinal change.
Our Sun Safe Schools and Sun Safe Nurseries national accreditation programmes support settings in their duty of care to safeguard children and provide ongoing education to influence behaviours and prevent skin cancer for our future generations. To date, we are proud to have reached over one million children and their families nationwide with vital education, gaining official recognition as ‘Best Practice’ by the National Institute of Health and Care Excellence (NICE).
Our award winning MASCED (Melanoma and Skin Cancer Early Detection) training programmes have taken the hair & beauty industry and healthcare sector by storm, boasting international media coverage with many lives saved due to this ground-breaking intervention. Reviewed by the British Association of Dermatologists and officially recognised, endorsed, accredited and supported by many key industry bodies, to date, we have trained and accredited over 11,000 professionals who are now providing a potentially life-saving, free service to in excess of 1.5 million clients/patients across the UK and beyond.
There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to education! As such, Skcin are nationally recognised as the go-to charity for our comprehensive range of bespoke solutions and resources designed to engage, educate, and equip communities nationwide, empowering the nation to take charge of their skin health and surveillance.
Suffice to say, if you are considering signing up to the Sun Safe Workplaces programme - you are in safe hands.
