What was your reason(s) for accessing the Stop Smoking Service?

What products did you use to aid you? Dual therapy? And how helpful did you find them?

Used patches and gum, this dual therapy was a good combination for client

As well as medication, did anything else help you to stop smoking and stay smokefree?

Support from those around him but having Jane my advisor call me every week also really helped as I didn’t want to let her down

Did you use Client Zone or the Yorkshire Smokefree Website?

Have you noticed any changes in your health since you quit?
