Shopping centre to ban the use of e-cigarettes

A shopping centre in Sutton-in-Ashfield is set to ban the use of e-cigarrettes.

From September 1, customers visiting Idlewells Shopping Centre will no longer be able to use e-cigarettes.

The restriction comes after customer feedback on the topic called a full ban on e-cigarrettes and similar devices.

Chloe O'Donnell, centre manager, said: "The health and safety of the general public of Sutton-in-Ashfield, as well as our employees, is our priority first and foremost.

"We want to promote a clean air zone within our centre where shoppers can feel relaxed and are not potentially deterred by e-cigarrette fumes.

"Our customers range from the elderly to children and families - so complete inclusivity is crucial. We want everyone to feel like they can walk around the centre in complete comfort."

The use of e-cigarettes us also banned by intu, which manages both the Victoria and Broadmarsh shopping centres in Nottingham city centre.
