Manchester City have been criticised by a skin cancer charity after fans were told they could not take sun cream to the Etihad Stadium
Melanoma UK, the country’s leading melanoma patient organisation, branded City’s policy “disappointing” and “very worrying”.
It said: “Really? You won’t allow sunscreen into the stadium? What is the explanation? You must be aware of the increase in skin cancers and the danger of UVA & UVB? Not here to criticise, but this is very worrying. Happy to work with you in awareness. Many footballers have had melanoma.. You cannot expect a stadium full of fans not to have sunscreen with them. Help protect them - link up with someone who can provide the sunscreen inside the stadium. This is so disappointing.
