New Issues and Age-Old Challenges: a Review of Young People's New issues and age-old challenges: a review of young people’s relationship with tobacco A report by Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation February 2017 New issues Contents and age-old challenges: a review of young people’s relationship with tobacco 3 Foreword A report by 4 Executive summary Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation 5 A roadmap for action February 2017 6 A new reality for tobacco and young people 10 Shifting issues in youth smoking 14 Tobacco-related health inequalities 18 Tobacco prevention and public health commissioning 2016/17 – The Survey 22 Youth smoking: from challenge to opportunity – Conclusions 24 References roycastle.org/youth Foreword Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation has been involved in challenging tobacco consumption since we started as a charity in 1990. This has been driven by the knowledge that exposure to smoke is linked to 85 per cent of lung cancers in the UK. By sharing with young people the true impact of tobacco, we hope to prevent a future generation suffering the economic, social and health damage caused by this addiction. Over the years we have tackled tobacco on many levels. The work Paula Chadwick of our first Lung Cancer Nurses included going into schools and Chief Executive, RCLCF raising awareness. Our smoking cessation services, Quit Support, assisted young people, including young pregnant women, to give up tobacco. We campaigned for, and supported, the development of smoke-free legislation in the UK. In 2015 we merged with the innovative charity Cut Films which provides a creative and empowering way of engaging young people in understanding the long-term harms of tobacco. This report reflects our ongoing commitment to prevent future lung cancer. Whilst progress has been made to reduce smoking rates, tobacco remains a legally available, socially tolerated, health hazard. We are facing the stigmatisation of smokers in communities where social and economic disadvantages are compounded with added health burdens. We cannot be complacent, as we see health promotion services struggling, no longer offering nationwide support for those who regret their teenage habits, because of funding cuts. This report reflects our commitment to carry on talking about this problem and how it is evolving, until we are a country where lung cancer is no longer a threat to our young people. roycastle.org/youth 3 Executive summary The face of youth smoking in the The measures which resulted The Government’s tobacco UK is evolving.

The policy • Specific recommendations within the strategy must focus recommendations within on reducing levels of youth smoking amongst the worst- this report overwhelmingly off people in society, including (but not exclusively) those focus on the necessity suffering from mental illness, economic hardship, and of return to national those belonging to minority but high risk communities. leadership on smoking, • The solutions which successfully delivered progress in and the identification recent decades can no longer be relied upon to do the of a few immediate same for this generation. The strategy must at all times opportunities for action be future-focused, seeking to increase interventions at a local level. which engage young people within their day-to-day lives. This will also require broader thinking about influences on young people and the role of legislation to safeguard young people in a globally interconnected digital age. • With public health cuts unlikely to be reversed in the short/medium term, recommendations should ensure that investment is made in systems that offers greatest impact and value for money. The development of standardised evaluation frameworks for prevention services will be an important part of this drive towards cost-effectiveness. These new frameworks should form the basis of a comprehensive update of relevant NICE and PHE guidelines, which should also include the most up-to-date data on the impact of such services. Spreading and sustaining local excellence: • An opportunity exists for local public health policy makers to better utilise existing services to ensure they drive back at the most disadvantaged elements of society. This includes alignment of discussions about issues such as teen mental health and pregnancy, with discrete and impactful information on smoking. This work alone will not fully offset the challenges faced by the increasing closure of valuable services, but it will help to ensure that these moves do not single out those already suffering the most. roycastle.org/youth 5 A new reality for tobacco and young people Smoking, a habit machines as well as the 2015 law There are a variety of forged in early age which banned smoking in vehicles reasons why young Smoking is a habit developed carrying children. people start smoking. in early age with two-thirds of For instance, children smokers starting before the age of More recently, standardised who live with parents 181 and 402 per cent of smokers packaging was introduced in the or siblings who smoke starting regular smoking before the UK in line with the EU Tobacco are up to three times age of 16.

  • Film, Television and Video Productions Featuring Brass Bands
    Film, Television and Video productions featuring brass bands Gavin Holman, October 2019 Over the years the brass bands in the UK, and elsewhere, have appeared numerous times on screen, whether in feature films or on television programmes. In most cases they are small appearances fulfilling the role of a “local” band in the background or supporting a musical event in the plot of the drama. At other times band have a more central role in the production, featuring in a documentary or being a major part of the activity (e.g. Brassed Off, or the few situation comedies with bands as their main topic). Bands have been used to provide music in various long-running television programmes, an example is the 40 or more appearances of Chalk Farm Salvation Army Band on the Christmas Blue Peter shows on BBC1. Bands have taken part in game shows, provided the backdrop for and focus of various commercial advertisements, played bands of the past in historical dramas, and more. This listing of 450 entries is a second attempt to document these appearances on the large and small screen – an original list had been part of the original Brass Band Bibliography in the IBEW, but was dropped in the early 2000s. Some overseas bands are included. Where the details of the broadcast can be determined (or remembered) these have been listed, but in some cases all that is known is that a particular band appeared on a certain show at some point in time - a little vague to say the least, but I hope that we can add detail in future as more information comes to light.

  • Consultation Response Form
    SFP 19 Sub Committees on The Smoke-free Premises etc. (Wales) (Amendment) Regulations 2012 Response from the Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation Dear Sir /Madam, The Roy Castle Lung Cancer Foundation is the only UK charity dedicated to lung cancer, as such we fundraise and support research to give help and hope to those suffering from lung cancer. We also deliver stop smoking services in Liverpool and Knowsley and campaign for public health measures to protect the public against the impact of tobacco. We are opposed to any exemption to the smoking legislation. 1. Wales‟s smoke-free premises legislation is one of the most successful public health measures introduced in Wales All workers in Wales should be protected under the law. Not only will an exemption undermine the Welsh Government‟s other tobacco control initiatives, it will open the door to future challenges to the legislation from other industries who deem the law to be affecting their profits. 2. An exemption is not necessary: The argument is simple: why do we need to change the law when we can use fakes? We do not expect actors to inject heroin or have their appendix out – they should not be expected to smoke. There are special effects companies in Wales already providing the technology to simulate smoking easily and effectively if it is necessary, as in the BBC‟s Upstairs Downstairs series. 3. The „economic‟ argument is not a valid one Wales does not, and should not need to offer smoking to be a competitive location for filming. Productions have moved from England to Wales when there was no exemption and Wales has already proved itself an attractive location for major films.

DB: Of course I am, depending on what you ask me but so far I am happy to sign it. SB: OK. First of all perhaps you could tell me a little bit about your background; where you were born? DB: Well, I never give a straight answer to that because it’s a bit complicated. It’s a bit like asking somebody, “Where were you born?” and they say in “China” because their parents happened to be in China at the moment and as a baby they were brought over and for the rest of their lives they have to say they were born in China and they say, “Oh, you’re Chinese”. “No, I’m not!” So I have to tell you that my Grandparents, my father’s parents, were from Poland and my mother’s parents from Russia and my father was born in a country between Austria and Czechoslovakia, which doesn’t exist anymore.

  • Gb 1456 Thomas
    GERALD THOMAS COLLECTION GERALD THOMAS COLLECTION SCOPE AND CONTENT Documents relating to the career of director GERALD THOMAS (Born Hull 10/12/1920, died Beaconsfield 9/11/1993). When Gerald Thomas died, his producer partner of 40 years Peter Rogers said: ‘His epitaph will be that he directed all the Carry On films.’ Indeed, for an intense 20-year period Thomas directed the Carry On gang through their innuendo laden exploits, and became responsible, along with Rogers, for creating one of the most enduring and endearing British film series, earning him his place in British popular culture. Thomas originally studied to become a doctor, before war service with the Royal Sussex Regiment put paid to his medical career. When demobilised in 1946, he took a job as assistant in the cutting rooms of Two Cities Films at Denham Studios, where he took Assistant Editor credits on Laurence Olivier’s Hamlet (1948) and the John Mills thriller The October Man (1947). In 1949, he received his first full credit as editor, on the Margaret Lockwood melodrama Madness of the Heart (1949). During this time Peter Rogers had been working as associate producer with his wife, producer Betty Box, on such films as It’s Not Cricket (1949) and Don’t Ever Leave Me (1949). It was Venetian Bird in 1952 that first brought Thomas and Rogers together; Thomas employed as editor by director brother Ralph, and Rogers part of the producer team with Betty Box. Rogers was keen to form a director/producer pairing (following the successful example of Box and Ralph Thomas), and so gave Gerald his first directing credit on the Circus Friends (1956), a Children’s Film Foundation production.
