FREE SKIN CANCER CHECK AND AWARENESS UNIT TO VISIT INVERLEIGH FRIDAY & SATURDAY 21st & 22nd JANUARY 2022 – 9am to 3.30pm

This unit will provide a free skin screening service to local people. It is operated by fully trained, certificated, volunteer dermoscopists. The unit will also be a valuable resource for local people to access not only the skin check, but valuable and timely information about skin care and self-checking techniques. We know early detection of skin lesions potentially saves lives, so this visit will be a timely support and reminder to local people of the need to take care of their skin. 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 – it simply provides the skin check and alerts the visitor to skin lesions that require further checking and attention: a great first step in ensuring urgent needs are addressed. The airconditioned van has three fully equipped screening rooms and an entry foyer, as well as a disabled lift and entry at the rear. Members of the Lions Club of Inverleigh-Leigh Valley will be responsible for scheduling appointments with the unit. Bookings will be available from December 16th –contact Lion John Crowe 0414 674 156 email john.crowe1@bigpond.com From December 16th
