It getting hot out there everyone! Don’t forget to use your sun protection!
Recent statistics show that 68% of people got unexpectedly sunburnt in the last 2 years. 30% while walking, 29% while gardening, 26% while at the beach, 19% watching an outdoor event, 18% while driving. Even if the clouds are about the UV index can still be high and you can still get sunburnt! While sunburn and tans fade, the UV damage remains. SunSmart have launched a new app- seeUV. Be sure to check it out and get daily UV readings before heading out into the sunshine. Don’t forget to Slip, Slop, Slap, Seek and Slide!
