Support from Quit Your Way
Through Quit Your Way, you can receive free support from a stop smoking advisor.
Your first appointment is usually half an hour. The advisor will ask you to fill in forms to sign up to the service, and can help with this if required.
The advisor will provide support and discuss which stop smoking products would best help your quit attempt. You will either receive your products:
- there and then, if attending in person
- by post, if you are receiving telephone support
You have the option to:
- set a quit date there and then, or
- cut down to quit (over a maximum of four weeks)
Follow on sessions are usually 15 minutes, weekly or fortnightly. You will receive support until you feel confident enough to stay stopped on your own.
