Waltham Forest is now Smokefree!
Smoking is now illegal in most public places and workplaces. This includes all offices, factories, shops, pubs, bars, cafes, transport, restaurants, clubs (including private members clubs) including work vehicles and enclosed public spaces.
All premises where people are employed or to which the public has access are now smokefree.
