A Health Education Programme for adults with learning difficulties is described. Health Education for this group has often been neglected with limited resources available, especially in relation to tobacco use. The programme described aims to redress this issue by providing a package, which effectively presents information, in a manner which is sensitive to the needs and abilities of this particular group, on the health and social issues of smoking. Two case examples are presented to illustrate how the package is effective in both group and individual settings.
