This Stoptober, there are more ways to quit smoking than ever before, with free support and a range of effective quit aids available.
If you’re thinking about quitting, you don’t have to do it alone.
Support includes personalised help from stop smoking advisors, nicotine replacement therapy and stop smoking medicines, as well as digital support through the free Smoke Free app.
Switching completely to vaping is also less harmful than smoking and can help manage nicotine cravings. Local stop smoking services can offer advice and support, including free vape starter kits.
Support is always available
If you stop smoking for 28 days this Stoptober, you’re five times more likely to quit for good.
Quitting smoking is one of the most important decisions you can make for your health and it’s never too late to start.
