UV Angel Keyring




















UV Angel have kindly donated a unique, beautifully Hand Crafted Keyring made with an assortment of glass, metal and UV beads as one of the Lots for our Charity Auction.

"UV Angel is a partnership which started life in the summer of 2008. The idea was simple… we wanted to promote the importance of keeping yourself safe in the sun.

We’ve all seen the blistering red sunburned bodies each summer and read the tragic stories of people who have died as a result of skin cancer. The truth is that at least 80% of all skin cancers are caused by over-exposure to harmful UV radiation from sunlight and sunbeds.

As the parents of fair skinned children ourselves, we understand the importance of keeping them safe from unnecessary pain and danger. We believe we have found a great way to teach them through our jewellery line, as children and adults alike love the colour changing beads!

At UV Angel we’re hugely committed to helping people become much more sun-savvy!

UV Angel Bracelet















UV Angel have kindly donated a unique, beautifully Hand Crafted Bracelet made with an assortment of glass, metal and UV beads as one of the Lots for our Charity Auction.

"The intensity of the sun's ultra violet (UV) rays and the serious sunburn these can cause should never be underestimated, even here in the UK. Sunburn can lead to premature ageing and more seriously, skin cancer.

UV Angel specialise in unique handmade jewellery and accessories which feature a range of amazing beads that are highly sensitive to UV rays and dramatically change colour (from clear to wonderful bright tones) when taken outside, even on an overcast day.

The colour change is a timely, important reminder to double- check your sun protection.

All UV Angel products are designed to be fun and fashionable, but with a serious message. Ideal as a thoughtful gift to show you care."
