Smoking and vaping information
We know that quitting smoking reduces your chances of heart disease and lung cancer, as well as improving your sense of taste, making your skin look younger and reducing stress.
Please remember that smoking or vaping is not allowed anywhere on any NHFT sites for outpatients, visitors or staff.
For adult and older adult inpatients only, smoking or vaping is permitted in specially designated areas (ward gardens). If you are an inpatient, please speak to your ward matron about smoking and vaping options. Tobacco dependency advisors are available to support you to quit smoking or vaping, and we also offer nicotine replacement therapy.
All other service users, visitors and staff must go offsite if they wish to smoke or vape.
