Skin Cancer

To coincide with Melanoma Awareness Month, which runs throughout May, Roscommon University Hospital has donated sunscreen dispensers to Roscommon GAA – Roscommon Gaels and Dr Hyde Park to help raise awareness around skin cancer prevention.

The initiative aims to encourage regular sunscreen use among players, particularly during the summer months when UV exposure is at its highest.

Experts from the Dermatology Department at Sligo University Hospital will be at the HSE Stand at the National Ploughing Championships from 18 to 20 September to offer skin cancer information to visitors.
