Criminalise smoking on NHS hospital grounds

Petition Details

This petition urges the UK Government to introduce legislation to ban smoking on all NHS hospital grounds across the country.

Additional Information

Give police the power to arrest and charge people who have contravened the ban.

Smoking near healthcare facilities poses serious health risks to patients, visitors, and healthcare workers.

NHS hospitals strive to be smoke-free zones, but we believe current efforts to enforce this via signage and security patrols are ineffective.

We think making smoking on NHS hospital grounds a criminal offence is the most effective way to combat this deeply concerning issue.

Smoking on hospital grounds is harmful and undermines efforts to protect public health.
