    • Slip on a shirt

      It is really important to keep your skin covered by a loose shirt or t shirt.  Sun suits are a great way to protect your toddlers or small children.
      This is really important in the heat of the day between 11am and 3pm.

    • Slap on a hat

      When dressing yourself don’t forget to cover your head and wear a hat.  This will keep the sun of your face and protect your head helping to reduce the risk of sun stroke.

    • Slop on sunscreen

      Remember to use sun screen, and to top it up regularly.

      It should be at least factor 30 and have a 4 star UVA protection which you can check on the side of the bottle.  For  whole body covering you should aim for 2 tablespoons in an adult.  Put it on at least 30 minutes before going out in the sun and then re apply at least every 2 hours.
