A trial 3 month voluntary ‘no smoking’ ban comes into effect this Friday.

This is being trailed at Florence Park, Cutteslowe Park and Sandfield Road Recreation Ground (John Radcliffe) and applies to the enclosed play areas only.

Posters will be put up within the play areas and monitoring will take place.

The trial will help the City Council to see whether a voluntary ban could potentially work or whether it should look at introducing legislation to make this enforceable.

Please do let us know your views on this.
