WHY Quit?
Here are a few reasons:
- The average smoker loses around 12
healthy life years.
- Smoking tobacco is also known to cause around
80,000 deaths in the UK every year, and around
5 million deaths globally.
- Tobacco is the only legal drug
that is known to cause death to the user when used
as intended.
But Just Think About How Great it would be to Quit!
What it would be like to wake up every day feeling fresh and
free?
- More energy!
- More money!
- More life!
Many people think that lots of people smoke. In fact, in the UK
only 21% of of the population smoke with lots of those quitting
every day. Think about the positive impact that it might have on
your friends and family - you'll be able to spend longer with and
watch your family grow.
Quitting can be tough...but you are not alone!
