All Saints Academy Pilot A Peer Led Anti-Smoking Project On Behalf Of NHS Stop Smoking Service Bedfordshire

Kick Ash is an anti-smoking project led by young people, for young people that has been successfully running in Cambridgeshire for several years now.

Following on from that success, Bedfordshire Stop Smoking service decided to pilot it in this area. We were approached by them and asked if we would take part and run the pilot at All Saints.

An Assembly was held and Year 10 students were given the opportunity to apply to be a Kick-Ash mentor.  Training sessions with the Stop Smoking Service and Trading Standards, were followed by a busy six months spreading the “ Proud To Be Smokefree” message.
