Did you know:
Melanoma is the 5th most common cancer in the UK, and although it is more common in older people, it is relatively common in younger people. In 2015 about 16,000 people in the UK were diagnosed with melanoma, and within the last decade this number has increased by almost 50%. Over 2,500 of these people will develop advanced disease. Treatment of Advanced Melanoma has recently been transformed by introducing immunotherapies and targeted inhibitors in the treatment of patients who are not cured by surgery Source: http://www.cancercentre.ox.ac.uk/may-is-skin-cancer-awareness-month/

May 2021 is National Teen Self Esteem Month and we give full focus on helping our teens feel good about themselves.
Most of us have suffered with self-esteem issues at some point in our lives. The teenage years are especially difficult for many young people. On top of the physical, hormonal, and emotional changes, teens also have the added stress of starting new relationships, extreme educational expectations, and unprecedented societal pressure driven by social media and the like.
As, May 2021 is Teenage Self Esteem awareness month we thought we’d share some examples of how we can all step up and play our part:
Get physical – Take a walk and talk
Be available to listen and leave judgement at the door
Lead by example – talk positively about yourself and others
Show that you are a trustworthy confidant
Teach them how to receive compliments
Encourage small challenges / develop hobbies
Be a good mentor – share hints & tips, and sign posts to help
