Well done to Graham from Gravesend ๐ŸŽ‰

Graham was anxious about giving up smoking, but with his determination and a personal quit programme, he is proud to now be smoke free.

He has made positive changes to his health and wellbeing and now regularly attends the local gym.

Myth: Itโ€™s too late to quit smoking and see the benefits.

Fact: Itโ€™s never too late. Quitting smoking brings immediate health benefits โ€” even for those with existing smoking-related conditions.

โœ… After just two days, your body starts to flush out carbon monoxide.
โœ… Within three to nine months, lung function improves and breathing becomes easier.
โœ… Long-term, your risk of heart disease, stroke and cancer begins to fall.

Thinking about quitting? Call us on โ˜Ž๏ธ 0300 123 1220 to book your free support session. We're here to help you take that first step.

๐ŸŒŸ Emma, you're an inspiration ๐ŸŒŸ

A huge congratulations to Emma Berry, whoโ€™s been working with lifestyle advisor Gill at Canterbury Kingsmead Family Hub over the past three months and has completely transformed her lifestyle.

Emma wanted to become healthier as she prepared to become a nan, hoping to have the energy to keep up with her new grandchild. And sheโ€™s done just that.

Gill shared that when Emma first came to see her, food wasnโ€™t a priority, she often relied on cereal and biscuits, and previous diets hadnโ€™t worked. Instead, they focused on small, realistic lifestyle goals. Those little steps have led to big changes.

Emma has now lost an incredible 21.8 kilograms, reducing her BMI from 45.4 to 38.2. Her clothing size has dropped from a 26 to an 18. She now cooks healthy meals daily, walks at least 10,000 steps and visits the gym three times a week.

Even more inspiring, Emma was previously on medication for anxiety and depression and no longer needs it.

Emma said: โ€œI am so much happier in myself and have not felt this mentally strong since the age of 13 when I first went on antidepressants.โ€

Weโ€™re all so proud of you, Emma ๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ’ช
