Gerry McElwee, Head of Cancer Prevention at Cancer Focus, said: “We are delighted that Michael and Gareth chose the care in the sun message as the theme for their end of year course work. The video is creative and entertaining, yet it contains an important message for the public. I’m sure it will help viewers think about their health in a new way.”
