Clare Oliver Challenge has now finished
21 Dec 2009 - 31 Jan 2010
The Clare Oliver Challenge of 2009-10 invited Challengers to "Ban the Tan this summer" - helping to keep their skin safe while raising funds for melanoma research.
By taking on the Clare Oliver Challenge, our Challengers made the following pledge to protect their skin:
- I will not get burnt;
- I will avoid any deliberate tanning through sun baking or using a solarium;
- When the UV is 3 and above, I'll protect my skin in line with SunSmart advice:
* SLIP on sun protective clothing that covers as much of my body as possible.
* SLOP on SPF 30+ broad spectrum water resistant sunscreen, liberally to dry skin, at least 20 minutes before sun exposure. Reapply every two hours when outdoors. Never use sunscreen to extend my time in the sun.
* SLAP on a broad brimmed hat that shades my face, neck and ears.
* SEEK shade
* SLIDE on sunglasses
- Help raise funds for melanoma research.
