A quick round up whats been happening over the past couple of months with the Bangladeshi Stop Tobacco Project.
We have successfully completed 3 quarters of 2007 – 08 . We have a wonderful new Tobacco Control Team committed to working closely with all its local stop smoking services and are currently working a new tobacco control strategy.
We have already been offered an opportunity for expansion before March, which is excellent! Obviously our targets have gone up slightly we now have the extra hours to really focus on work all over Tower Hamlets and not just within the parameters of the Dental Institute!
After March we hope to get stuck in to the new wave Cancer Research UK mouth cancer screening sessions that will run over ten weeks.
The project will be joined by two new workers and we will be working on ’special projects’ to enhance recruitment and work in prevention work. So we will be trying to stop people taking up tobacco use as well as helping them to stop.
I have noticed over the last couple of months that the most popular tags and articles seem to be about tobacco whether its halal or haram? And about paan cessation. Hopefully I will try and elaborate a bit more on those topics.
