Stoptober is back! Join thousands of other smokers committing to quit this October.
💚Here at Virtue we are committed to promoting health related resources, this month we will be supporting the NHS Stop smoking campaign hoping to raise awareness about the effects of smoking.
❌Stop smoking for the 28 days of Stoptober and you’re
five times more likely to quit for good.❌
Did you know that routine and manual workers such as labourers, bar staff,
lorry drivers, receptionist and care workers are more than
twice as likely to be smokers as other occupations?🩺🩻
Some of the benefits of quitting smoking:
💪better physical health : Brighter skin due to better oxygen levels and teeth will stop getting stained with tar, reduced risks of smoking-related diseases
🧠better mental health: Stopping smoking boosts mental health and wellbeing.
🫂better for your family and friends: Teens whose parents or caregivers smoke are 4 times as likely to take up smoking.
Take the challenge today and share to show that you care.
