DESCRIPTION
Cancer Research UK and Nivea Sun, Emma Hodges, Business Development Manager and Caroline Cerny, Senior Health Campaigns Manager, Cancer Research UK Developing a partnership Skin cancer is now the 5th most common cancer in the UK and is the fastest growing cancer of recent years. Up to 80% of all skin cancer cases are avoidable. Cancer Research UK identified a need to improve education amongst the public on being safe in the sun to impact these rates. Cancer Research UK and Nivea had a long standing partnership as part of Cancer Research’s ‘Race for Life’ event, which had benefitted the brand by increasing its awareness amongst participants by 30%. There was a desire to expand this partnership and the link with Nivea sun and a campaign about being safe in the sun was obvious, but understandably Nivea was nervous about having its brand associated with skin cancer. So the challenge was set to create a campaign which educated the public to encourage them to wear enough sun cream, to wear a hat and to sit in the shade, without damaging the reputation of Nivea. Aims and impacts: The aims for the partnership were set out at the beginning and included: Fundraising through sales of Nivea Sun Engaging and educating the public from early age Educating the public with a clear health message about wearing more sun cream Outputs and outcomes created included: Money raised funded ground breaking research which has identified possible new treatments Educating c.559,500 primary school pupils which will hopefully lower cases of skin cancer in the future 73% awareness of the core messages of the campaign and change in consumer behaviour It will take time to tell whether these outputs and outcomes impact the number of cases of skin cancer in the UK.

“We are very grateful to Nivea for their support of our programme, which is
making great strides to help large numbers of patients with a disfiguring and
dangerous cancer, which accounts for a quarter of skin cancer deaths. We also
assist in campaigns to prevent skin cancer, which is key due to the continuing rise in
our ageing population.” Professor Irene Leigh
