Sheffield Tobacco Control Strategy Consultation

23 Nov

The Sheffield City Council and other Partners are currently refreshing the Tobacco Control Strategy for 2017-2022. On the 31st of March 2017 all our current contracts are due to end. This provides an opportunity to review what we have in place, and consider how we can do better to support smokers in the city to stop, and children and young people not to start.

We are consulting with the public and a number of key stakeholders to understand views and opinions about the proposed new strategy.

The ‘Sheffield Tobacco Control Strategy consultation 2017- 2022’ is now open and will run until the 2nd of January 2017. You can take part in the consultation via SCC Citizen Space
