HMF Education programs

HMF Education programs are free of charge to a range of community groups, high schools, University students, sporting groups and workplaces.

HMF offers tailored education programs to suit your community group. Our face-to-face sessions are designed to educate the community on the prevention and early detection of melanoma.

Our sessions each run for around 40 minutes. Please allow extra 10-15 minutes for questions. We also offer to bring along our UV camera which shows the UV damage to the skin which is not visible to the naked eye. 

To book and education session, please email us.

Join us in the fight against melanoma

With your help, over the past 35+ years, we’ve been working to defeat melanoma—and we know the work we’re doing is making a real difference. But there’s still much more to do.

In the Hunter New England Local Health District, melanoma is now the second most diagnosed cancer (Cancer Institute NSW, February 2024), underscoring the urgent need for continued awareness, early detection, and prevention.

Nationally, melanoma remains the most common cancer among Australians aged 20 to 39. Your donation and ongoing support allow us to continue this life-saving work—funding education programs, supporting patients, and advancing research to reduce the impact of melanoma in our community.
