Smokefree Zones and Information

It is now an offence for anyone to smoke within 15 metres of an NHS hospital building. This applies to everyone, including staff, patients and visitors to our hospital sites. 

The new law applies to all NHS hospital buildings in Scotland and includes all awnings, canopies, or other overhanging structures connected to an NHS hospital building (even if they extend further than 15 metres from an NHS hospital building). 

Watch the ‘No smoking within 15 metres of an NHS hospital building – explainer video‘ for more information.
