Stop Smoking Campaign


I used to work for the NHS as a project manager and spent just over a year working for the Stop Smoking Service so this campaign I feel very passionately about and thought I would share. The ‘Ex Smokers Are Unstoppable’ campaign aims to emphasize the life-changing benefits of giving up smoking. The campaign wants to encourage and assist people to quit with the help of iCoach, a free online health coach and move towards a smoke-free Europe.

The campaign provides smokers with motivation to quit and practical assistance, and highlights ex-smokers as inspiring individuals and role models who encourage current smokers to quit.  It’s completely FREE, its proven to work (over 30% who start the program quit), adapts to your needs, time and goals and gives the opportunity to have a support network.  



Check out the video above and for more information on the campaign  please visit: http://www.stopsmokingcoach.eu/

What are your thoughts on smoking? Are you a smoker looking to quit?

  2. I'm an ex smoker who has been off the cigs for about 7 weeks now! I feel so good for it, it's still hard and is in the back of my mind a lot of the time but it's totally worth quitting.

    I kicked a 20 a day habit by going cold turkey, if you put your mind to it you can do anything; I know that now!

    Now I'm an ex smoker I don't find it 'disgusting' to see people smoking because at the end of the day its their choice and I know how much I loved doing it. I just take comfort in the fact that I no longer have to worry about smelling of smoke or how I'm going to pay for my next nail polish because I have saved so much money!!

    If anyone reading this has just started smoking... STOP! The longer you smoke the more it becomes the habit of a lifetime which feels almost impossible to give up!
