Great session today at Crafty, St Martins
We discussed with amazing success of Sabina and her team with Falcon Services (Loughborough) in supporting the homeless community with smoking cessation sessions and how Public Health have adapted their approach service delivery to the clients varying and sometimes complex needs. There was some discussion of how, in the city, we could replicate this success story.
