Integrated Care Boards and tobacco control: making good progress

This report sets out the findings from a short survey of ICBs, an analysis of their Joint Forward Plans, and data on the funding of tobacco dependence treatment services. The report describes the significant progress made since the NHS Long Term Plan introduced tobacco dependence treatment services in hospitals, in maternity services and mental health inpatient settings. However, insufficient funding, uncertainty about future funding, and patchy collaboration with local government are impeding further progress and require attention.

ASH runs a range of webinars, providing up-to-date information and resources on tobacco control and public health. Webinars are recorded and available to watch here.
