Stoptober: Let’s Quit Together

Friday 12th September 2025

Stoptober is a national campaign that encourages people to quit smoking for 28 days.

Research shows that if you stay smokefree for four weeks, you're five times more likely to quit for good.

Smoking remains the leading cause of preventable illness and death, and quitting is one of the best things you can do for your health, wellbeing, and finances.

Quit together and team up with a friend, family member, or colleague and support each other through a quit attempt.

Get help from Health Coaches and access the Smoke Free app for support. If you live or work in Wiltshire, you can get six months’ free access to the Smoke Free app, which includes:
