Skin cancer consultations are still available
Dr Amy Stanway, a trained medical physician and qualified specialist medical and surgical dermatologist, is available for remote consultations by phone, email and video conference during the COVID-19 lockdown.
Skin cancer can affect people of any age, including children so if you notice any one of the following changes on your skin, you should have it checked by a dermatologist:
- A new mole or freckle that hasn't always been there
- A change in the look of an old mole or freckle
- A new feeling in a skin lesion, for example, tenderness or an itch
- A spot on your skin that looks different to other moles and skin spots
- A spot or lesion that won't heal properly.

Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.
