Sterling Property has partnered with Shade Skin Cancer Medicine as part of the #ThrowShade initiative, offering no-cost, full-body skin cancer checks to its team and their immediate families.
This partnership reflects Sterling’s ongoing commitment to workplace wellbeing, providing real, preventative health support that goes beyond the office.
Making Prevention Practical with #ThrowShade
Skin cancer will affect two in three Australians by age 70, yet regular checks are often overlooked due to cost, time, or accessibility. The #ThrowShade initiative, led by West Perth-based Shade Skin Cancer Medicine, breaks down these barriers with a clear and simple approach:
- No cost: Bulk-billed skin checks through Medicare
- No hassle: Easy appointment access
- No catch: Businesses help raise awareness – Shade takes care of the rest
Shade Skin has taken this a step further by extending the program to include the Sterling Property’s immediate families of staff. It’s a proactive move that reflects the company’s strong values.
United by Values. Driven by Care.
Shade Skin Cancer Medicine, led by Dr Emily Alfonsi, is a dedicated clinic specialising in the early detection and treatment of skin cancer. Located at 97 Outram Street in West Perth, the clinic features purpose-built facilities and advanced diagnostic equipment, providing a more efficient and accurate skin check service than a standard GP setting.
Sterling selected Shade not only for their expertise, but for their shared commitment to meaningful care and preventative health.
A Purpose-Built Partnership
Many Sterling team members spend time outdoors attending inspections, managing assets, or working on-site, making sun exposure and skin health a daily consideration. Offering easy access to workplace skin checks is a practical way to embed health into the company’s culture and reduce long-term risk.
By participating in the #ThrowShade initiative, Sterling Property is reinforcing its commitment to long-term care, not only for its people, but for the families who support them.

At Sterling Property, values drive everything and that includes how the business supports its people, and those who stand behind them.
