A third of young people are putting themselves at risk by not taking care in the sun, a charity has said.
Cancer Research UK said that 35% of 16 to 24-year-olds use sunbeds, tanning oils and do not apply suncream properly.
A survey of around 2000 adults found that more than a quarter of young people would spend at least an hour in strong sun without protecting their skin.
