Abstract:
Smoking is a deep-rooted and complex psychological, behavioural, social and physiological practice. Smoking is reinforced by positive reinforcement outcomes and negative withdrawals symptoms experienced during abstinence (Marks et al., 2006). Furthermore smoking is a primary contributing factor in health inequality (Raw, McNeill, & West, 1998). Current data suggests that smoking rates in England have fallen to their lowest rate in over eighty years (Brown & West, 2014). Despite the downwards trend in smoking prevalence, smoking remains the UK’s biggest preventable cause of premature mortality

Abstract:
INTRODUCTION: Having members within communities as ‘natural helpers’ may ensure good understanding of local health issues and better delivery of relevant messages. Lay Community Food Advisors (LCFA) may be an effective means to increase coverage of health promotion, empower individuals and communities, help to reduce social exclusion and address the gap in nutritional inequalities. LCFAs may increase awareness of healthy eating and help people translate advice into practice thereby positively influencing patterns of behaviour. However, there is limited evidence supporting these programmes, par

Newfoundland and Labrador's zero-risk policy for issuing BWAs on public drinking water systems has resulted in over 210 active BWAs annually, the majority classified as long-term BWAs.

No relationship was found relating confirmed cases of water-related illness to BWAs. Quantifiable health risk associated with BWAs was evaluated usi
