Be a part of Forth Valley’s Whole Systems Approach to Tobacco and Vaping

Forth Valley’s Health Improvement Services and the Forth Valley Tobacco Action Group are delighted to invite you to participate in developing a Whole Systems Approach to Tobacco and Vaping in Forth Valley. Whilst tobacco and vaping may not be obvious parts of your work; a healthier, happier and thriving Forth Valley is a core part of many of our ambitions or values. The damaging, enduring effects of tobacco and vaping can be seen across whole communities and across generations living in Forth Valley; harming finance, health, environment and wellbeing.

Forth Valley Tobacco Action Group would like to invite you or a representative of your organisation/department to attend an online workshop to explore the impact of Tobacco and Vaping for Forth Valley and begin the journey to create a Whole Systems Approach together. This will be held on the 30 May 2024, 9:15am-12:30pm, via Microsoft Teams. The conference is open to those living or working in Forth Valley, including members of the public and young people.

If you can’t make the workshop on 30 May, you can still watch the presentations and send your views via a web survey, which will be circulated shortly after the event.

This is just the first step of creating a Whole Systems Approach for Tobacco and Vaping for NHS Forth Valley. Stay tuned for dates of further rounds of conversations.

For any questions, please contact our admin support staff (shannon.nixon@nhs.scot). Please register for the conference via their online form (linked for your convenience).
