World No Tobacco Day
The theme for World No Tobacco Day 2025 is "Unmask the appeal"
We'll be launching a new campaign this year that young people can get involved with! Check back next month for details.
The theme this year is "Unmask the appeal"
The UK is committed to the World Health Organization’s Framework Convention on Tobacco Control Article 5.3 which challenges the attempts of the tobacco industry and its associates to influence elected representatives about health policies.
We'll be asking young people to tell us how they feel about being lured into become addicted to health harming products, so that tactics deployed by Big Tobacco and associated organisations are put to an end.
The theme is 'Protecting children from tobacco industry interference'
What can I do?
Check back later for details about our campaign and call to action!
