Nice one - good find

Only bit I don't like is this:

Although we are unable to supply e-cigarettes until they are medically licensed for smoking cessation, our specialist advisers can support you through your quit smoking attempt using your own e-cigarette

However, at least it is another step forward for the NHS, we need more of these to take e-cigs onboard.

Yeah, that is a bit worrisome. Still reasonably good news though.

Good news, it's a pity our NHS in Scotland is not as forward thinking as they have recently included vaping in the ban on smoking within the grounds of Health centres or Hospitals.

Mind you its not being observed as you still had to run the gauntlet of cigarette smoke at the front entrance on my recent visit.

I hope that Louise Ross of Leicestershire SSS gets a credit for starting this off within the NHS....

There also mentioned on the main nhs site now www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Smoking-%28quitting%29/Pages/Treatment.aspx

It seems most nhs smoking services are getting onboard some even say they are a lot safer www.stopsmokingglos.nhs.uk/ways-to-quit-smoking

[Bobsbeer]

Great for them. At least one nhs trust with common sense.

This makes a hell of a difference to our cause. When we are approached by the ignoramuses who insist that they read in the press that vaporizers are more dangerous than cigarettes, we can point to this. A massive result.
