Hey... I’ve been chosen to represent the Teenage Cancer Trust as I feel really passionate about the work they do and I think they are amazing in helping teenagers who could miss out on their teen years!
Shunburn is a great new site aimed at young people to raise awareness of the dangers of being in the sun! http://www.shunburn.co.uk
It offers free text messages ‘burn alerts’ to tell you when you need to wear sun cream!! You can also get the chance to win fabulous prizes!
Teenage Cancer Trust does many things including making teenagers aware of cancer prevention, they also ensure that young cancer patients get the best possible care in hospital and the chance to do all the things that other teenagers do. After all, teenagers don't stop being teenagers just because they get cancer.
Leona Lewis’ sun safety messages:
Apply your sun cream
Cover up with a t-shirt
Wear a wide-brim hat
Stay out of the sun between 11 and 3
Pop on a pair of sunglasses
Think about what you could be doing to yourself when going out in the sun without covering up, it’s really important!!!
