With summer almost here, it’s worth noting that our North Coast community has one of the highest incidences of melanoma in the country. Healthy North Coast is working with the Cancer Institute NSW (CINSW) and Skin Check Champions to develop a skin cancer prevention and early detection initiative.
As most skin cancers in Australia are diagnosed by GPs, we are also seeking feedback from local GPs through our skin cancer survey regarding access to high quality early detection options for high-risk populations across the North Coast.
The survey takes five minutes to complete and closes on 23 December 2022. Your input will help to shape skin prevention and detection initiatives for our community
