October is Melanoma Awareness Month!
Our Nurse Educator will be providing FREE skin cancer spot checks and melanoma education at Westfield Riccarton in Christchurch from Friday 17 October to Sunday 19 October, 10am to 4pm.
Community event – all welcome.
This is a unique opportunity to receive a five-minute and non-invasive spot check* from a trained melanoma Nurse Educator and learn life-saving advice and information about melanoma.
*Please note that our Nurse Educator will check up to 3 spots. This is not a full body check, and a diagnosis is not provided. Regular full body skin checks by your GP, dermatologist, surgeon, or plastic surgeon are still recommended.
No appointment is necessary. However, as this is a public event, spot checks will be provided on a first-come, first-served basis. Sometimes demand for our free service is high, so please be aware that there can be a wait and if you cannot be seen on the day, you can book an online consultation with a Nurse Educator here: https://melanoma.org.nz/how-we-can-help-you/appointment-booking/
A huge thank you to our generous sponsor, La Roche-Posay, for sponsoring this event, and to Westfield for hosting us.
