Template press releases
No Smoking Day is an excellent opportunity for you to promote the help that you provide to smokers in your local media. Local newspapers and TV and radio stations know that No Smoking Day takes place and need a local angle.
You may have a Communications Department in your organisation which can help you with media work. If you haven't then you should find the template press releases that we will add to this page useful.
As we get nearer to the Day we will start adding to this page a number of 'Swiss cheese' template press releases. These are general press releases with spaces for your own local contact and event details and a local expert quote. You simply complete the blanks and send it off to your media contacts (and then follow it up with a phone call).
If you're not sure who to contact at your local paper or radio station, email us at enquiries@nosmokingday.org.uk to ask for their contact details.
We'll be updating this section throughout the campaign, so keep coming back for up-to-date information.
