With the sunnier days we have been having recently and hopefully more to come too.  For this week’s regular check in with Glasgow based Pharmacist Elizabeth Roddick it is all about sun protection. 

Elizabeth began by explaining to RNIB Connect Radio’s Toby Davey why we need to be careful when out in the sun and do we get enough vitamin D if we are only out in the sun for a short period of time.

then to why we should protect our skin from the sun, making sure we don’t get burnt and taking care with our eyes in the sun too.

You will find further advice around Sunscreen and sun safety on the following pages of the NHS website - https://www.nhs.uk/live-well/seasonal-health/sunscreen-and-sun-safety/
