Smoking Cessation
Stop Smoking Support
Smoking is harmful, but quitting can be challenging. Our Smoking Cessation Service provides the guidance and support you need to break free from nicotine. Although smoking rates continue to decline, more than seven million adults in the UK still smoke – with higher rates among manual workers than those in desk-based roles.
Why It’s Hard to Quit
- Cravings
- Weight gain
- Headaches
- Insomnia
- Poor concentration

Our accredited Stop Smoking Adviser provides expert counselling and can supply nicotine replacement products such as patches, gum, and nasal sprays – often free of charge if you are exempt from prescription fees.

Tips to help you quit smoking
- Ask friends not to smoke around you for extra support.
- Avoid replacing cigarettes with food – take a five-minute walk during your usual cigarette break to help curb cravings.
- Put the money you save from not buying cigarettes into a jar to track your progress.
- Stay positive – every smoke-free day is a step forward.
- E-cigarettes can help some people quit, but they are not a completely risk-free alternative.
