At Tim Davies Landscaping, we design and maintain some of Western Australia’s most iconic outdoor spaces but it’s our people who bring those landscapes to life. From early mornings on-site to long days exposed to the elements, our team spends countless hours working in the sun.
With WA’s climate delivering more sunshine than almost anywhere else in the country, sun safety isn’t just a seasonal message, it’s a daily priority. That’s why we’ve partnered with Shade Skin and the #ThrowShade initiative to offer free skin checks for our team over the next six months.
Why it matters:
- Western Australia has one of the highest UV ratings globally
- Two in three Australians will be diagnosed with skin cancer by the age of 70
- Melanoma is the most common cancer among young Australians
- Early detection can improve survival rates by over 90%
For a landscaping business like ours, where outdoor work is core to what we do, this kind of initiative goes a long way. It removes barriers, like cost, time, awareness and encourages people to prioritise their health, even in the midst of a busy schedule.
Our team is the foundation of everything we do at TDL, and this partnership is one way we’re investing in their wellbeing beyond the job site.
Supporting our team to focus on their skin health reflects the values we live by at TDL. Through the #ThrowShade campaign with Shade Skin Cancer Medicine, we’re making preventive care more accessible because a safe, healthy team isn’t just good for business, it’s the right thing to do.
