My wee one has respiratory issues and I am unable to take him to the RHC playground between treatments due to the constant presence of smokers and the effect this has on his health and well being.
I was so hopeful when the law was changed to make smoking within 15m of hospitals illegal and liable to fines. However I was so disappointed to see that people were smoking at the children's hospital bike shed and covered areas at the playground. This went unchallenged by hospital staff.
This was the ideal opportunity for the health board and RHC management to make a positive change for families like me (and the wider community).
