“All the attempts of trying to stop in a way educated me, preparing me for the next time. Just do it. There’s never going to be a perfect time. I used to tell myself I was too busy with work, too stressed, or that I’d wait until summer, but you just have to go for it.”

"My stop smoking advisor recommended the Smoke Free app and I can honestly say without it I don’t think I’d still be quit."
After the birth of his third child, Richard from Horton in Bradford knew it was time to quit smoking. He’d tried to quit before but this time he was determined to do it for his family.
He’s been quit for more than a year and is enjoying having more money in his pocket and spending less time smoking and more time with his children.

“My advice to anyone who wants to quit is surround yourself by other people who are trying to quit, as it’s much easier to quit with support. Also, find the right way to quit for you, as everyone is different. If you relapse don’t worry, just try again, as it often takes several attempts to quit for good."
