The primary aim of the Smoking Cessation Service is to deliver an evidence-based, accessible stop smoking service, particularly for priority groups where there is high smoking prevalence. The new service will deliver the following:

• Proactive outreach with communities that do not traditionally engage with mainstream services to improve visibility, access and acceptability.

• Adapt service provision to meet the needs of our diverse communities and reduce inequalities tailoring the level support for those with more complex health needs and those that need it most.

• Work across services and organisational boundaries improve public health outcomes.

• Support delivery of the council’s Tobacco Control Strategy, including a focus on prevention with children and young people.

Redbridge is an ambitious, diverse and exciting east-London borough. What we do is driven by changing our relationship with local people to support our vision. As a result, we've developed innovative ways to build our communities and transform our Council. We're one of the fastest growing parts of the country and the third most diverse London borough. Our communities are attracted by a mixture of excellent schools, relatively affordable housing, high-quality open space and rapid transport connections into the heart of the City.
