How to protect your child from the Sun

Spring is here and the sun is back – whether it’s hiding behind the clouds or out in full swing!

But sun health for our little ones is anything but straightforward and we need to learn how to educate those around us and at our children’s schools about what our child needs to protect their delicate skin.

Watch our interview with Dr Caradee Wright for some practical examples on how to protect your child from the sun – we cover UV, SPF and everything in between!
