Borrow our Smoking Resource Boxes
Two new Resources Boxes on Smoking are now available to loan from the Resources Library at the Directorate of Health Promotion.
These include:
A Smoking Resource Box for Primary Schools
A Smoking Resource Box for Secondary Schools/Colleges
Both boxes include interactive resources e.g. a jar of tar, games, video’s, CD ROM’s, etc, as well as Background Information Sheets and Lesson Plans on a number of smoking topics.
These interactive resources are ideal to use when covering the topic of smoking, and can be linked in to many aspects of the School Curriculum e.g. Science, Maths, Geography, English, PSHE/Citizenship and PE. They would also be ideal to use when holding a Health Awareness Day/Week.
To borrow these resources you need to join the Resources Library at the Directorate of Health Promotion.
There are three ways of doing this:
- Register
electronically at www.healthinfo.nstaffs.nhs.uk
(click on ‘Register’ on the toolbar and complete and submit the registration form). You will be emailed once your registration is active. - Download the registration form from the Library Welcome Page at www.library.nhs.uk/sasha (under ‘Libraries’ select ‘Health Promotion Information and Resource Centre’) and send it in by post.
- Telephone (01782) 298193 for a printed copy of the registration form.
If you are already a member, you do not need to re-register, but if you haven’t
ordered online before you will need to telephone the Library Enquiry Desk on
(01782) 298193 to obtain a username and password.
Once you have registered and have got a username and password, you can then
place your order online at www.healthinfo.nstaffs.nhs.uk.
You will need to log in, and under ‘Text’ on the toolbar type in ‘K15437’ for
the Smoking Resource Box for Primary Schools, or type in ‘K15438’ for the Smoking

There are also loads of resources on other health topics that you can borrow e.g. alcohol, drugs, food and health, sexual health, etc. To see what else you can order, go to www.healthinfo.nstaffs.nhs.uk and look under ‘Subject’ on the toolbar.
