It is almost time for “Stoptober 2023” !
Stoptober is back with a new national campaign designed to encourage and support smokers to quit for good.
While smoking rates have declined in recent years, over 5 million people in England still smoke and it remains the single biggest cause of preventable illness and death.
Since its inception in 2012, Stoptober has successfully helped 2.5 million smokers to make a quit attempt and has become a well-recognised annual event in the public health calendar.
The total cost from smoking to society in England is approximately £17 billion a year, this includes the cost to the NHS of treating diseases caused by smoking at approximately £1.9 billion a year
The theme for this year’s campaign is ‘When you stop smoking, good things start to happen’ – reminding smokers of the many benefits of quitting and providing useful tips to help them on their quitting journey.
The campaign will encourage smokers to search ‘Stoptober’, directing them to a range of information and free support tools on the Better Health – Quit Smoking website.
There is an App you can download to track your progress, view how much money you have saved and also get support.
Plus quitting tips and advice on methods to help you quit including using vapes.
Please get involved and share the message on Social Media using the Hashtag #Stoptober !
