We are in Stormont this morning calling on the NI Executive to introduce Minimum Unit Pricing for alcohol as soon as possible - we believe this policy will help reduce harm, health inequalities and save lives

As an example, one year of introducing MUP could create a cost saving of 4.8 million which would be enough to deliver a 24/7 Thrombectomy service in NI. MUP could not only prevent alcohol related deaths and illness, but have far reaching secondary positive effects #MUP

This Northern Ireland Chest Heart & Stroke event at Stormont today highlighted the impact #MinimumUnitPricing could have saving lives here in NI and reducing the pressure on our health service. We heard about the evidence from Scotland from Drs and academics who are calling for it to be implemented here.

A really interesting and important session. This is exactly the sort of action we need if we are going to be serious about preventing ill health, untimely and excess deaths and tackling health inequalities.

Our first #APGonLungHealth presentation is from Jessica Perry from Northern Ireland Chest Heart & Stroke, sharing the You and Me NI Vape Free Programme. It’s a really exciting project and we hope all schools roll it out

Our second #APGonLungHealth presenter is Joseph Carter talking about the results from the Life With a Lung Conditions survey. We still have the lowest levels of basic COPD care, whilst asthma care is still not as good as before the pandemic

The Tobacco & Vaping Bill will help in the fight against the scourge of tobacco and discourage young people from smoking or vaping. We applaud the UK government for passing this radical legislation. And it must be implemented in full in NI from 1st Jan 2027. DynamicNI

It’s great to be at Stormont for the ASH NI event “Reflections on Tobacco & Vaping: Public-Health Priorities for 2026 and Beyond” 🫁 We need a roadmap to deliver a smoke free Northern Ireland by 2035.

Thanks Cancer Focus Northern Ireland for this event. Smoking is a life limiting addictive habit which is the No 1 cause of death and illness in NI. As an ex-smoker I know how hard it is to quit. You’re up to 4 times more likely to quit with the free stop smoking service. stopsmokingni.info

Minimum Unit Pricing (MUP) will not be introduced in Northern Ireland during this Assembly term. Despite clear evidence it reduces alcohol harm, this is a missed opportunity to save lives and ease pressure on our health service. Read more: nichs.org.uk/about-us/news/…
