Stoptober is back for its eighth year to help smokers break the habit of a lifetime. Trying to quit smoking can be one of the hardest things to do, but with the right amount of support and advice, you can do it!

Stoptober is a 28 day long event run each October during which participants are encouraged to stop smoking. The event is based on evidence that shows that after twenty eight days without a cigarette smokers are as much as five times more likely to give up smoking for good.

GOOD LUCK to all who are taking part, you can follow the campaign via all social media platforms and for advice on quitting visit: www.nhs.uk/smokefree
