For Quitting

70% of smokers want to quit and there has never been as much help available from the NHS.  Guidance consistently shows that you are four times more likely to quit for good when you use the support of a local NHS Stop Smoking Service, combined with a prescribed stop smoking aid, than going it alone.

Around 70% of smokers want to quit and their best chance is through the NHS Stop Smoking Service - up to four times more likely than by using willpower alone. That's why increasingly, advisers will be out and about holding events in supermarkets, malls and other locations.

It's a great way for smokers to find out more about quitting and for advisers to promote the fantastic support available, from one to one advice and support groups and medication for dealing with cravings.
