A ban on sunbeds could reduce the number of deaths from deadly skin cancer, a new study shows.
Researchers from the University of Manchester found that a ban on indoor tanning would result in 1,206 fewer cases of melanoma - the worst form of skin cancer - and 207 fewer deaths.
In addition, it would result in 3,987 fewer cases of other more common types of skin cancer which "impose a major burden on both affected patients and the NHS."
