Cancer continues to be the most common cause of death in Jersey and Guernsey, according to the latest figures.
Data from the Channel Islands has been released in a report by Public Health England, which looks at the disease in islanders between 2001 and 2014.
Around 1,700 islanders are diagnosed with cancer each year on average, with skin cancer accounting for around 40% of cases.
