Denise van Outen has announced her support for NIVEA SUN and Cancer Research UK's sun safety partnership, which details steps that families can take to keep their skin healthy this summer.

Van Outen, who took part in a retro themed photoshoot in London Fields, commented 'Looking after my skin has always been incredibly important to me. I always try and cover up with a t-shirt and hat and spend time in the shade when it is sunny, especially as I am an active and sporty person and am often outside. I also always make sure that I keep a bottle of sunscreen in my handbag at all times'.
