SUMMARY:SunSafe Student Ambassador Program
DESCRIPTION:Ensuring teenagers are aware of the danger of melanoma and the importance of sun safety is the mission of the SunSafe peer-to-peer learning program\, an initiative of Melanoma Institute Australia run in partnership with Sydney Local Health District\, Northern Sydney Local Health District\, Cancer Council NSW and Cancer Council WA. \nSecondary schools are invited to participate in the SunSafe Student Ambassador Program by attending one of our free workshops – held in Sydney\, Perth\, Wagga Wagga and Hobart – which will empower students to share the sun-safe message in their own school. \nThe workshop trains representative students in the importance of sun safety and how to deliver an engaging presentation. The students then go back to their schools and\, using the skills they have learned\, deliver a sun-safe presentation to their peers. The program also helps students to support sun safety practices in their school beyond the presentation. \nThe workshop is run in a collaborative learning environment with local schools and has been designed to meet learning outcomes from the Years 8 and 9 PDHPE/HPE curriculum. \nFIND OUT MORE

SUMMARY:Melanoma March 2023
DESCRIPTION:Melanoma Institute Australia (MIA) is calling on all Australians to step up and join its 2023 Melanoma March campaign\, to support ground-breaking research and raise awareness about the disease that claims one Australian life every six hours. \nMIA’s Melanoma March events will be held in every state and territory during March 2023. Organised by volunteer committees impacted by melanoma\, the local events raise vital funds for melanoma research as well as provide an opportunity for patients and families to come together to support each other and remember those lost to the disease. \nWe urge Australians to sign up to help us tackle this disease\, which is known as Australia’s national cancer. \nAustralia has the highest melanoma rates in the world\, with one person diagnosed every 30 minutes and one person dying from the disease every 6 hours. It is also the most common cancer affecting 20-39 year old Australians. Currently\, 50% of advanced melanoma patients don’t respond or become resistant to new immunotherapy treatments. \nMelanoma March events are a family-friendly 4km walk. Most events are pram and wheelchair accessible\, and most are dog friendly. \nThose who can’t attend an event can still support the campaign by getting active and hosting a March Your Way activity with friends or individually. \nPlease click on the website link below to find out more about your local event. \nFIND YOUR NEAREST MARCH\, REGISTER NOWCost to Register: \nCosts to attend a physical event are: \n\nAdults (over 18 years) $40\nChild (5-17 years) $20\nChild (under 5) Free\nFamily deal: Register 2 x Adults and up to 5 Children (5-17 yrs) for $100. Additional adults will be charged the full rate.\n\nRegistrations to March Your Way are free!
