Engaging children, young people and families

Big ShoutER 2034 (3)

 

ASH Scotland works with groups and organisations engaging children, families and young people, from community youth groups and family support services, through to schools and fostering agencies. 

There are a number of ways that we can help your organisation to reduce the harm that smoking causes to those you work with, to help those wishing to quit smoking and to help everyone to enjoy the benefits of living smoke-free. 

We have a focus on reducing inequality through encouraging, informing and enabling organisations to support the people they work with to live free from tobacco.

Our Engagement Team are here to support you and your organisation.
