There are a variety of ways that you can get involved and support our awareness campaigning
We have recorded a podcast series in partnership with ITN business. All episodes are out now!
As experts in melanoma, we provide information, guidance and support for patients, carers and healthcare professionals. We have built a community of melanoma specialists who underpin our commitment to melanoma education and research.
Our experts have created specialist resources including comprehensive information on melanoma stages and treatment to help you make
informed choices.
We have a professional membership for clinicians, scientists and nurses in the field of melanoma. We provide key educational resources, the Melanoma TrialFinder and research grants, in addition to organising two multidisciplinary meetings each year.
We are wholly committed to raising public awareness about melanoma as a cancer that can be predominantly prevented.
May is Melanoma Awareness Month.
Our members and patient representatives have come together to produce our new Melanoma Stages and Treatment – Patient Guide
The melanoma stages and treatment – patient guide (MPG) reflects the latest advances in melanoma medicine such as staging, surgical procedures, adjuvant therapy, updates and treatments. Our newly developed resources will help you navigate the options that may be available to you as well as providing information on health and wellbeing and living with melanoma.
In July 2023, Melanoma Focus received PIF TICK accreditation. The PIF TICK is the UK wide quality mark for trusted health information, achieving this official certification demonstrates our commitment to the provision of high-quality health information. This means you can be assured that what you are reading, watching or listening to is evidence-based, understandable, jargon-free, up-to-date and produced to the best possible standard.
