We get our sunscreen out during the summer months when the sun is strongest in the UK, but often neglect to protect our skin in autumn and winter as we believe the sun isn't strong enough to cause any damage.
However, UV rays from the sun are actually strong throughout the year and can even penetrate cloud cover, meaning sun damage can happen even in the colder months.
In addition to the risk of sun damage and premature ageing, not protecting your skin from the sun also increases your chance of developing skin cancer.
