A melanoma patient is working with Cancer Council Australia and the Melanoma Institute Australia to get more aussies using umbrellas to protect themselves from UV.
After being diagnosed five years ago, Damien MacRae has taken sun protection very seriously by slip-slop-slapping and bring a “mobile shade” of a UV blocking umbrella.
Mr MacRae is concerned that so many Aussies aren’t using umbrellas or parasols on an everyday basis as they reduce the risk of skin cancer.
