Last gasp for smoking research

If you can take a little time to help with a smoking survey you could find yourself the proud owner of a brand new Alliance mouthpiece.

There is still time to take part in an innovative anti smoking initiative backed by celebrated cornet star Roger Webster, which is also giving people the chance to get your hands on an Alliance Mouthpiece in the process!

Simple online survey

UK adult smokers are being asked to complete a simple online survey with the opportunity to be entered into a free draw to win one of 10 Alliance mouthpieces—including the brilliant David Childs, Richard Marshall, Les Neish designs.

Becca Orme of King’s College London told 4BR: "It’s a simple survey that will give us valuable information on research to identify smokers’ attitudes and opinions towards anti-smoking messages."
