:00:16. > :00:19.The number of cases of the most serious type of skin cancer has
:00:19. > :00:25.risen 400% in Wales since the 1970s, according to the charity Cancer
:00:25. > :00:28.Research. The rise is bigger than in any other part of Britain. Despite
:00:28. > :00:38.this, the number of people recovering is higher than with any
:00:38. > :00:42.other type of cancer. Jennifer Jones has the details.

:00:47. > :00:51.course sunbathing. But there is a warning today for the hundreds of
:00:51. > :00:53.thousands of sun worshippers. According to the Cancer Research
:00:53. > :01:02.charity, the number of cases of cancerous melanoma has increased
:01:02. > :01:05.400% during the past 40 years. And the figures are shocking. In the mid
:01:05. > :01:11.'70s, four in every 100,000 people in Wales developed the most
:01:11. > :01:15.dangerous type of melanoma every year. Nowadays, there are 18 cases
:01:15. > :01:22.in every 100,000 - which means that 730 people develop the disease in
:01:22. > :01:25.Wales every year. One of the reasons is thought to be in the increase in
:01:25. > :01:28.holidays to European countries since the end of the 1960s and the
:01:28. > :01:32.increased use of sunbeds. It's also possible that improved diagnosis has
:01:32. > :01:40.contributed to the increase. Meredydd Williams has recently
:01:40. > :01:54.undergone skin cancer treatment. Following radiotherapy on his face
:01:54. > :02:08.and back at Ysbyty Glan Clwyd, he's now in recovery. I have worked in
:02:08. > :02:15.the sand throughout my life. I was always outside. I am putting some
:02:15. > :02:17.weight back on now. I lost a lot of weight. But to avoid the risk of
:02:17. > :02:23.melanoma, Cancer Research is emphasising the need to avoid
:02:23. > :02:26.getting sunburn. And the best way to do that, they say, is to wear a sun
:02:26. > :02:34.hat, use plenty of high factor sun cream. And if your shadow is shorter
:02:34. > :02:38.than you, you should find shelter. And there is good news. Although
:02:38. > :02:41.around 120 people die from skin cancer every year in Wales, the
:02:41. > :02:46.number of patients surviving is among the highest for any cancer -
:02:46. > :02:49.with 80% making a full recovery. their conference in Brighton,
:02:49. > :02:53.teaching union the NUT has voted in favour of strike action which will
:02:53. > :02:56.place at the end of June. The dispute over pay, pensions and
:02:56. > :03:03.working conditions is responsible for the move. Strike action could
:03:03. > :03:06.affect thousands of children across England and Wales. They are also

:03:10. > :03:13.has criticised the captain and crew of a ferry which sank off the coast

:03:41. > :03:44.Cadoxton Terrace when his bike collided with another vehicle in the
:03:44. > :03:47.early hours of Friday morning. In the meantime, in North Wales today,
:03:47. > :03:51.a campaign was launched to urge motorcyclists to take care on the
:03:51. > :03:55.A494 between Corwen and Bala. The road is one of the most dangerous
:03:55. > :03:58.for motorcyclists in Wales. Dafydd Evans reports. It's one of the
:03:58. > :04:04.busiest weekends of the year for motorcycles on the roads of North
:04:04. > :04:07.Wales. The Ponderosa is a popular spot for a drink. And it's an
:04:07. > :04:20.obvious spot for the emergency services and road safety agencies to
:04:20. > :04:28.get their message across. It's easy to see the appeal of these roads on
:04:28. > :04:34.days like this. But there are many dangers. Figures suggest that this
:04:34. > :04:38.road, the A494 between Corwen and Bala is one of the most dangerous.
:04:38. > :04:49.Over the past decade, there have been 109 accidents. Almost 60% of
:04:49. > :04:55.those involved motorcycles. There were five deaths. There are some
:04:55. > :05:06.dangerous corners. Unfortunately, what we are seeing is that at three
:05:06. > :05:11.spots, on corners on this road, the motorcyclists are unfortunately
:05:11. > :05:16.getting into accidents. So were the motorcyclists willing to listen?
:05:17. > :05:23.see it quite often. Some of the younger motorcyclists. They are
:05:23. > :05:26.full, to be honest. The motorbikes are too powerful for them. Officials
:05:26. > :05:30.were concentrating on the A494 today, but the message is the same
:05:30. > :05:34.for those on the roads all over Wales, whether on two wheels or
:05:34. > :05:37.four. Tributes have been paid to peace campaigner Arfon Rhys, who has
:05:37. > :05:40.died aged 72. Originally from Llanelli, he was secretary of the
:05:40. > :05:45.Fellowship of Reconciliation in Wales and also campaigned for the
:05:45. > :05:48.Welsh language. A unit of Welsh doctors with the
:05:48. > :05:52.Territorial Army have been granted the freedom of the city of Cardiff
:05:52. > :06:06.in recognition of their service. The reservist unit are the ninth
:06:06. > :06:10.organisation to be given the award since 1886.
:06:10. > :06:13.A company from Gwynedd is also celebrating. Seven years after it
:06:13. > :06:16.was established, Babipur was nominated for the Observer Ethical
:06:16. > :06:18.Awards, or the Green Oscars, as they also known. The company sells
:06:18. > :06:22.eco-friendly child products, including 40,000 nappies a year.
:06:22. > :06:25.Jolene Barton started the business from her home and now employs five
:06:25. > :06:31.members of staff. The company sends products to customers right across
:06:31. > :06:36.the world from its warehouse in Penrhyndeudraeth. I had an interest
:06:36. > :06:42.in where things were being produced and how they were made. I was
:06:42. > :06:50.thinking a lot about those things. I wanted to start the business and I
:06:50. > :06:56.was sure that I wanted to make sure that it was not happening with the
:06:56. > :07:06.products we were selling. It does get difficult sometimes to ensure
:07:06. > :07:12.that everything is green. But it is worth doing. We sell around 40,000
:07:12. > :07:19.nappies a year. And we sell them to people right across the world. We
:07:19. > :07:27.have been nominated for the awards and we are very proud. I hope that
:07:27. > :07:32.people will vote for us. We will be going to London in June. Hopefully
:07:32. > :07:35.we will win the award. According to newspaper reports, David Moyes' time
:07:35. > :07:38.as Manchester United manager could be over after less than a season in

:07:42. > :07:50.could be sacked before the end of the season. There are also rumours
:07:50. > :07:54.that Ryan Giggs could take over for the four remaining matches.
