This afternoon we would like to welcome the player, supporters and officials of Lincoln City to the Abbey Stadium. We also like to welcome all the families coming to the game for their first time.
Today, is the clubs Kids Take Over match. We hope those involved enjoy the occasion and remember it for years to come. I would also like to thank all the staff for enabling the event. It is so important to create magical moments and experiences whenever we can. Sometimes it is easier not to do something, than it is to do something special. Imagine 8,000 fans sat in our stadium today, 170 of them could get melanoma skin cancer in their lifetime. That could be someone sitting beside you or someone standing next to you in the Habbin or Newmarket Road End. These are the stark facts about melanoma, the 5th most common cancer in the UK and the deadliest form of skin cancer. Yet, nearly 9 in 10 cases are preventable by staying safe in the sun and avoiding sunbeds. This highly preventable cancer kills over 2,300 people in the UK every year. Knowing the signs of melanoma could save your life. If you notice a new or a changing mole or lesion or something that simply looks odd or seems different to your other moles or lesions, then contact your GP. If a melanoma is caught early, you are unlikely to have any other symptoms or feel unwell and most people can be cured. We recommend checking your skin and nails once a month and if you have any concerns to contact your GP. As we start to cover up more throughout the colder months, it is vital that you make time for your skin checks. Remember, if in doubt check it out! If you have been affected by melanoma and would like to help raise awareness, please get in touch: [email protected] Melanoma Focus is a national UK charity dedicated to supporting patients and healthcare professionals as well as raising vital awareness, to learn more or access their support, visit melanomafocus.org Enjoy match and be Loud, Proud and United
