Have an orange, and feel better.

🍊 Did you know? Cravings can last up to 15 minutes before passing. Instead of relapsing by picking up a cigarette, use your fast-acting NRT product and distract yourself. Peeling and eating an orange or two can be a healthy and yummy technique!

❄️ An alternative method is to sip ice cold water, place ice on the skin, or taking a cold shower. This change in temperate acts as a sensory shift.

🫁 Ci******es put your body at a 100% risk with each smoke due to the toxins going through you. This includes carbon monoxide, acetone, ammonia and ni****ne, just to name a few.

💨 Vapes were made as an alternative to ci******es for smokers (people only using to***co), they don't contain anywhere near as many toxins and were never designed for someone who hasn't smoked before. Making the swap is ideal for anyone wanting to stop smoking altogether. We advise clients to quit their v**e 2 years after being cigarette free!

This reel is a little piece of Lynne's story as a smoker, the struggles, the setbacks, and the small wins that actually matter. It hasn’t been perfect… but it’s been real.

If you’re trying to quit (or thinking about it), you’re not weak for finding it hard - you’re strong for still trying. 💛

On No Smoking Day, real people from our community share a simple but powerful message - quitting smoking is possible, and it’s never too late to try.

🧡 This short film is part of the Smokefree Action Coalition’s No Regrets campaign by Action on Smoking and Health , bringing together the voices of people who have quit, health professionals and trusted community members to encourage anyone who smokes to take a step towards stopping.

🚭 Local, free stop smoking support is available to help you quit in a way that works for you.
