Happy New Year from all of us at ABL Health!

2025 was a year filled with many incredible moments, including:

🎯 Through close collaboration and targeted support, we saw record-breaking reductions across our smoking cessation services, with Bolton and Sunderland recording their lowest smoking rates ever

🏆 Our BeU North Yorkshire service was shortlisted for the Great Autism Practice award

🌱 Across our BeU Wellbeing Hubs in Nottinghamshire, we delivered 1,345 wellbeing sessions, achieved 92% satisfaction and provided timely, preventative support to young people before they reach crisis point

💚 Many of our colleagues volunteered with their local services and fundraised for charity, supporting causes such as Crohn’s and Colitis UK, Brockswood Animal Sanctuary as well as local Food banks and Baby banks across the country

🎉We successfully retained our longstanding Investors in People and Disability Confident Leader accreditations, and now have 52 of our colleagues trained as Mental Health First Aiders

A huge thank you to our clients, partners and colleagues who have supported us in making a difference to the health and lives of so many people around the country. We can’t wait to continue this work in 2026.

Sunderland has reached its ‘lowest ever’ smoking rate - dropping from 11.6% to 9.4% in just one year.

We’re proud that our Sunderland Specialist Stop Smoking Service is part of this progress, supporting local residents to quit and stay smokefree. But while this is a fantastic milestone, we know there’s still more work to do to reduce smoking-related harm, especially in communities facing greater challenges.

If you’re looking for free stop smoking support in one of our commissioned areas, our teams are here to help.

This Remembrance Day, we pause to reflect on the courage, kindness, and selflessness shown by so many.
We remember those who gave their lives and those who cared for others through conflict and their recovery.
Examples that remind us of the power of every act of compassion and care.
