NON-SMOKERS seeking to avoid the sight and stench of cigarettes are being offered help.

A guide listing smoke-free sites across Yorkshire has been published, listing more locations than ever before.

More than 60 from the Hambleton area alone have entered the Hambleton and Richmondshire Smoke Free Alliance book this year.

The Yorkshire Smoke Free Guide lists restaurants, hotels and guesthouses in the region that are either totally smoke-free or have smoke-free areas for people.

It is available in local tourist information centres and district council offices.
