Next month Stoptober is back, and we’re calling on smokers to join millions of others who have quit successfully with the annual campaign. 

Over five million adults in England still smoke. Smoking causes 75,000 deaths a year, making it the biggest cause of preventable illness and death. Quitting smoking is one of the best things you can do for your health, and there’s no need to do it alone. 

The good news is, if you quit smoking for 28 days, you’re five times more likely to quit for good. And it’s much easier to stop smoking when you get the right support. 

That’s why this year’s Stoptober campaign is encouraging smokers to try quitting this October by exploring the wide range of free support available, including: 

All our advisors at Smokefree North Somerset are experienced, specially trained and are experts in helping you to stop smoking.  

We can also provide a free vape starter kit through the National Swap to Stop scheme, along with other nicotine replacement therapies and support. 

Stopping smoking is the single most important thing a smoker can do to improve their health. When you stop, you’ll experience health benefits almost immediately. 

Together, we can do this.
