Do you want to quit smoking?

Quitting smoking is the best thing you can do for your health, and it can save you money too. In Cheshire West and Chester fewer people smoke than ever before (10.5 per cent, which is approximately 30,899 people) but, sadly, smoking remains the leading cause of preventable ill-health and early death.

Every quit begins with a serious quit attempt and evidence shows that it can take several attempts before you are successful.

Getting support really boosts your chances of quitting – smokers are up to three times as likely to succeed.

Cheshire West and Chester Council offers a universal stop smoking, free service operated by Brio which supports anyone over the age of 12 living or registered with a GP in the borough to quit smoking.

To find out more you can call 0300 777 0033 or visit Brio’s smoking cessation page.
