Skin Cancer Foundation advocates umbrella use.

With the arrival of warmer weather, experts are cautioning people not to expose themselves to the sun's harmful rays..... and skin cancer. 

SkinCancer.org's advise that if you're outside when the sun's rays are usually strongest (between 10am-4pm), head under a pavilion roof, leafy tree or carry a UV Protection sun umbrella. 

Here at Hello Brolly we have some great umbrellas with UV Protection. Check out the Black Witch Umbrella and the Heart Umbrellas. All the Heart umbrellas have UV Protection, but the Silver has the highest UV rating of the range due to it's reflective outer surface, and black inner surface (which absorbs rays reflected from pavements).
