Could anyone advise please? Is this a skin tag or a tic?

    Sure don’t look like a skin tag, so more likely a tick.

    Never had to deal with a tick, but I was in the scouts and did a lot of outdoor activities and tick removal is one of those things they cover a lot. Use an oil or petroleum jelly to smother it and it should release and back out on its own. The other method widely taught when I was a kid was to light a match, blow it out and then use the still hot end to coax the fucker out; but I’m pretty sure that’s discouraged these days.
