Such good news to see this Bill (finally!) getting the Parliamentary time it needs ๐ Major kudos needs to go to all the peers who have been advocating for this landmark Bill and all the tireless campaigners in public health. Let's get it done ๐ญ

Such a privilege to visit NELFT this morning and see the incredible work they do every day supporting mental health patients. I especially loved these uplifting signs- co-produced with patients- to celebrate and take pride in their smokefree status ๐ญ๐
