Smoke-free sites

Smoke-Free Hospitals: help us make our hospital sites smoke-free and Gwent a healthier place to live

We all want to live healthier and longer lives and stopping smoking on our hospital grounds and places where our children grow can help the people of Gwent to do this.

In March 2021, the Welsh Government made it illegal for anyone to smoke on hospital grounds, school grounds, playgrounds and holiday accommodation in Wales.

We can all do our bit to comply with the smoke-free law and we kindly ask that you move offsite to smoke when visiting our hospital sites.

If you are smoker and are due to visit one of our sites and think you might struggle to abstain, please visit www.helpmequit.wales and speak to one of our Advisors who can help you make a quit attempt and stay quit for good.

Anyone identified smoking on hospital grounds may receive a Fixed Penalty Notice of £100 in line with the new legislation.
