Smoke Free Alliances (EoE)
Local actions on tobacco are carried out by alliances. An alliance is a collaboration of agencies that pursue a set of agreed goals for local delivery of tobacco control. Typical membership of an alliance can include representatives from health, local authorities and voluntary organisations.
The main roles for Alliances include:
- Strengthening and enhancing local capacity for action on tobacco control
- Supporting the implementation of “Smoking Kills” – the tobacco White Paper (1998)
- Influencing policy change at a local level
There are six alliances in the East of England. To find out about the work of your local alliance and how to contact them, click on the county that best suits you.
