Australia has one of the highest rates of skin cancer in the world. Lions clubs are doing something practical to reduce that level and its impact on families with the development and deployment of a skin check and awareness unit.
Early detection of skin lesions potentially saves lives.
Appointments available from 9am to 3:30 pm on both days
The van will provide a free skin checking service to local people and will be operated by fully trained, certificated and professionally supervised volunteers.
Each check will take approximately 15 minutes.
Following the skin check, visitors will be issued with a referral to their GP if there are any suspect spots or lesions. The unit is not a medical clinic, so diagnosis or treatment requirements are not discussed.
Only 102 appointments are available, so BOOKING through 0408 378 057 or Tatura@lions201v5.org.au is essential.
