This Wednesday a debate on the Health Committees report on the use and regulation of sunbeds in Wales takes place in the Plenary session.
BMA staff have produced a short information video and sent it to all Assembly Members ahead of the debate to remind them of the risks that sunbeds pose to the people of Wales.
We are hoping that they will support the recommendations of the committee.
In 2010 there is no excuse for the danger to public health posed by unregulated, unsupervised, coin-operated sunbeds.
The BMA Cymru production “A tan to die for” is on YouTube, and features Welsh schoolchildren giving their views on tanning, as well as consultant dermatologist Sharon Blackford and Cardiff North Labour MP Julie Morgan, who BMA Cymru Wales have work worked closely with in the campaign for UK legislation to ban children from using salons.
View the film (in two parts) here – and tell us what you think of it!

Nice to see doctors taking an interest in something other than themselves. A worthwhile campaign and good content .... lets hope AMs agree.
