Trends in smoking prevalence and socio‐economic inequalities across regions in England: A population study, 2006 to 2024
Between 2006 and 2024, smoking rates in the North of England fell faster than the national average, narrowing the geographic inequalities in smoking prevalence and bringing the North of England into alignment with other regions by 2024. Regional tobacco control programmes appeared to contribute to this progress.
