“Smoking is now completely banned at all sites in the north of the county run by the Cumbria, Northumberland, Tyne and Wear NHS Foundation Trust (CNTW). David Muir, group director for the North Cumbria locality at CNTW, said: “Creating a smokefree environment at our sites is more important than ever. Smoking, and breathing in second-hand smoke, puts people at greater risk of a whole host of illnesses.” Vaping, which is considerably less harmful than smoking, will continue to be allowed in designated areas on CNTW sites.”
