The UK is basking in 30C temperatures this weekend - and many will be aiming to top up their tans. While it is possible to sunbathe responsibly with high factor sun creams - many will already have done a lot of damage to their skin, both as adults and children.
Repeated sunburn, either by the sun or artificial sources of light, will make your skin more vulnerable skin cancer. A health warning has been issued by the government and Met Office for most of England for this weekend. The yellow heat-health alertmeans that the NHS is set to come under serious pressure as those with underlying health conditions potentially will need treatment.
The warning has been issued for seven regions of England - and is in place from 9am on Friday until 9am on Monday June 26 with temperatures expected to soar above 32C.
