Huge congratulations to former Chief Executive of ASH Deborah Arnott for winning the @BTSrespiratory President's Medal last night. As BTS said, Deborah has worked tirelessly for more than twenty years to reduce the harm caused by tobacco, and this award is very well deserved!

In a budget where it seems like the Chancellor was looking anywhere and everywhere for revenue raisers, the Government missed a trick by not listening to ASH's call for a polluter pays levy on tobacco manufacturers that could raise up to £5bn over 5 years.

📻Listen to @HazelCheeseman on LBC as she discusses the letter signed by over 1,200 health experts urging the swift passage of the Tobacco & Vapes Bill. This Bill is vital to protect the health of future generations - we can’t afford further delay!

In a letter published today in the BMJ, we call for urgent action to correct misperceptions of vaping. As long as public perceptions of vaping are misaligned with evidence, the opportunity for vaping to further reduce smoking is being missed. bmj.com/content/391/bm…

This study from @EveTaylor22 shows the scope for vape regulation that does not damage the likelihood of adult smokers switching to vaping. If Parliament can get on and pass the Tobacco and Vapes Bill then measures like this can be implemented: itv.com/news/2025-09-2…

We need the Tobacco and Vaping Bill to continue in the @UKHouseofLords asap. @thetimes today highlights the problem with 1 million smokers too ill to work (up 80% in a decade). Smokers are 3x more likely to be out of work due to poor health.

🎙️ Listen to @HazelCheeseman speaking on Times Radio about youth vaping and the urgent need to pass the Tobacco and Vapes Bill to protect children while balancing the needs of smokers to use vapes to quit.

@peterbeckett So because you are more public facing in your work life it should be acceptable to be exposed to more secondhand smoke?

@HazelCheeseman Why shocking? More contact with the public = more exposure is sort of more or less what you'd expect no? Bit surprised transport is top though, given you can't smoke in any mode of transport any more.

Celebrating 25 years of stop smoking services! Earlier this year, Gillian and Wendy visited Parliament and met @DHSCgovuk Minister Baroness Merron. From quitting smoking to becoming advisors, they’re breaking tobacco’s grip on their families.

⏳Today Parliament rises for summer recess, yet there is still no date for the Tobacco & Vapes Bill to be considered at committee stage in the House of Lords. 🗓️It has been 90 days since peers first debated this vital legislation. In that time:

As we celebrate 25 years of stop smoking services, let’s back the professionals who deliver them – and make sure every smoker, wherever they live, can get the help they need to quit. Together, we can build a smokefree future. #smokefreegeneration

Investing in stop smoking services is smart, cost-effective public health. It reduces illness, prevents early deaths, and tackles health inequalities head-on.
