As the summer heatwave rolls on, it's important to stay safe while enjoying the warm weather. It's easy for us Brits to get carried away when the sun shines and the temperature begins to rise into the 20s - and above.
We might want to soak up as much of the vitamin D as possible and make the most of the good weather by spending as much time outside as we can. But too much time in the sun at once, especially when we're not used to such hot conditions, can be dangerous - especially for children, the elderly or people with long-term health conditions.
The conditions have prompted the Met Office to issue an amber weather warning in England and Wales for Sunday (July 17), Monday (July 18) and Tuesday (July 19). The current heatwave, which is a result of hot air flowing to the UK from the continent, could be life-threatening for some.
