Free Skin Cancer Checks in Vermont South

Proudly hosted by the Lions Club of South Vermont and the Lions Club of Wheelers Hill, with the Support of Bunnings Vermont South, the Lions V Districts Cancer Foundation Skin Check and Awareness Unit is heading to Vermont South, offering free skin checks on Saturday 21st November, and Sunday 22nd November 2026.

The van will provide a free skin checking service to local people and will be operated by fully trained, certificated and professionally supervised volunteers. The unit will also be a valuable resource for local people to access not only the skin check, but valuable and timely information about skin care and self-checking techniques. 

Following the skin check, visitors will be issued with a referral to their GP if there are any suspect spots or lesions. The Unit is not a medical clinic, so diagnosis or treatment requirements are not discussed – it simply provides the skin check and alerts the visitor to skin lesions that require further checking and attention: a great first step in ensuring urgent needs are addressed.

The airconditioned van has three fully equipped Checking rooms and an entry foyer, as well as a disabled lift and entry at the rear.
