Smoking prevalence in England
21
o Prevalence was 19% in 2013.
o Peaked at 45% in 1974.
o Prevalence is substantially
higher amongst lower socioeconomic groups, people with a
mental illness and certain ethnic
groups.
o Prevalence is lowest amongst
higher income groups and those
with higher levels of education.

If we do nothing…
Evidence and experience show that when
anti-smoking campaigns cease, fewer
adults are prompted to quit and more
children start smoking.
The impact is greatest amongst those on
low incomes……

3. How do we reduce tobacco use?
24
The World Bank has developed a ‘six strand’
approach for reducing tobacco use
1. Stop the promotion of tobacco;
2. Make tobacco less affordable;
3. Effective regulation of tobacco products;
4. Help tobacco users to quit;
5. Reduce exposure to secondhand smoke;
6. Effective communications for tobacco control.
25
Local action: councils enforce tobacco laws
26
Local Authorities’ enforcement
responsibilities include:
Purchase of tobacco by under 18s
Proxy sales
Chewing and smokeless tobacco sales
Smokefree legislation
Illicit tobacco
Shisha cafes
Advertising ban

Harm Reduction
Nicotine is highly addictive. Some smokers are highly
dependent on nicotine and:
• may not be able (or want) to stop smoking in one
step
• may want to stop smoking but are unable to give up
nicotine
• may not be ready to stop smoking but want to reduce
the amount they smoke.
However it is the toxins in the tobacco smoke – not the
nicotine – that cause illness and death.
31
The NICE approach to harm reduction
For highly addicted smokers, NICE recommends a
“harm reduction” approach which advocates either
temporary or long-term substitution of tobacco with safer
forms of nicotine:
• Stopping smoking, but using NRT to prevent
relapse.
• Cutting down prior to stopping smoking with or
without the help of NRT.
• Smoking reduction with or without the use of NRT.
• Temporary abstinence from smoking with or
without the use of NRT.

Note to customise this chart:
1. Values for your locality are
calculated in the 'Local Tobacco

2. Copy from the ‘pdf’ as this
provides the clearest image.
3. Due to the amount of detail on
this slide, a printed “handout” will
probably be necessary for your
audience.
38
Tobacco industry attempts to
influence policy at local level.
• The tobacco industry has a long history of using front
groups to influence the policy process and undermine
tobacco control measures.
• The Tobacco Control Plan for England states explicitly that
local government should take action to protect their public
health policies from the interests of the tobacco industry.
• Front groups may claim to represent shopkeepers, retailers
and publicans but in fact promote the interests of the
tobacco industry.
• Now that Local Authorities are responsible for public
health, it is likely that the tobacco industry representations
to Councils via these groups will increase.
39
Things to look out for….
• In 2013 the tobacco industry subsidiary “Nicoventures”
attempted to meet with local authorities to discuss the
implementation of the NICE guidance on harm reduction.
• Planting stories with exaggerated claims about the
impact of illicit tobacco sales in local press.
• “Responsible Retailer” programmes purporting to
address underage sales.
• Offers to fund sniffer dogs, scanners and other
“resources” for combating illicit tobacco.
• Funding conferences for local government officers.
40
Working together for better health
1. Local Government, inc. police & fire brigade
2. Local Health Services
3. Organisations that work across neighbouring
localities within a region
4. Employers
5. Voluntary sector organisations
6. Children’s and youth groups
7. Smokers (particularly, groups with high rates of
smoking e.g. routine & manual smokers)
8. Health commissioners
41
Benefits of working across
local boundaries
• Marketing – would it be more cost effective to split
marketing costs with other Local Authorities?
• Tackling illicit tobacco – criminal gangs don’t pay
attention to local government boundaries.
• Surveys, research & data collection – cost savings
can be had from collectively commissioning
research & surveys, and sharing the results.
42
Key messages
1. Local Authorities have a key role to play: the NHS
cannot reduce smoking rates alone.
2. Smoking is the single biggest preventable cause of
health inequalities: reducing rates will bring significant
improvements in health as well as cost savings.
3. To reduce smoking we need to increase the number
of quit attempts & the success of each attempt: we
should target the poorest smokers to narrow the gap in
life expectancy between the richest & poorest and
improve the health of the poorest, fastest
