The report describes the proposed strategy for Tobacco Control in Sheffield and changes to future commissioning to support implementation of the strategy. The investment in Tobacco Control in Sheffield overall remains the same, but the focus will shift from individual quits to a focus on addressing population prevalence of smoking. To this end, it is proposed that £220,000 will be shifted from stop smoking services into wider tobacco control including schools based prevention programme, local media campaigns and increasing the number of smokefree sites.
