An electrical fault saw one bed 'pop' and left Adelle's Tanning in Castle Street, Coseley, up in flames in April last year.

More than 30 firefighters tackled the blaze and nearby residents were told to keep their windows shut.

Now the shop has reopened as Envy Tanning after a £200,000 refurbishment.

The family have been in the sunbed business in Bilston and Coseley for over 17 years and the Bradley family were devastated to hear the news of the fire.

Sharon Bradley, who runs the business, said: “We were devastated when we learnt of the news of the fire, our family have worked hard to build up the business in Coseley and Bilston for almost two decades and it was a huge blow to see it all go up in flames.

"It was really bad, we were devastated because the beds were only four months old, so it's all being looked into.

"We couldn't do anything for the first eight or nine weeks as we had forensics and the insurance company inside.

"Everything has been rebuilt the way it was before.

"We’re so happy to be open again with brand new sunbeds and facilities, we’d like to thank all of our customers who have been patient with us over the last nine months."

The family also have sunbed shops in Bilston and in Sedgley.

To celebrate the reopening of the shop, they are offering special offers to new and existing customers as well as treatments which include nails, facials, aesthetics and much more. You can find them on Facebook here facebook.com/EnvyTanningBeauty/
