Encouraging response to our appeal for people to distribute AWT's e-petition cards (see previous post).
Out of curiosity we asked volunteers to state their occupation. Here's a selection:
College lecturer, student, catering assistant, librarian, barmaid, brewer, landlady, electrician, engineering technician, painter and decorator, risk analyst, shop owner, quantity surveyor, HGV driver, service engineer, hospital manager, company secretary, and company director (based in Knightsbridge!).
We've also had offers of help from people who are retired or unemployed, a local councillor, and a musician who wrote:
As a smoker I join the other smokers outside the venues that we perform at before we start, during the break and after the show. We play throughout Britain. I am constantly telling smokers about the e-petition and would love to have some of the cards to distribute as a tactile object is a greater reminder to act than mere word of mouth.
To apply for cards please send your name, address and occupation to info@amendthesmokingban.com.
They will be sent out when we return from the Conservative conference in Manchester next week.
