  • The You Missed a Spot initiative aims to equip individuals with education and proactive protocols to help stay sun safe throughout the summer and beyond. Held in two major Canadian cities during May is Melanoma Month, participants had a UV image taken of their skin to demonstrate the way the sun’s ultraviolet rays have impacted them and juxtapose it against the powerful protection that sunscreen provides. Melanoma survivors and physicians were on-site communicating the importance of sun safety and self detection.
