Melanoma is a serious form of cancer that arises when the pigment-producing cells in the skin (melanocytes) may display as a mole or lesion that grows, changes shape, or colour.
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.
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.

NICE have published the updated melanoma: assessment and management guidelines in children, young people and adults. It aims to reduce variation in practice and improve survival of people with melanoma.
