Face-to-face stop smoking clinics re-opened

Tue, 12 Jul 2022

The Island’s free stop smoking service is re-opening its face-to-face clinics.

The Quit4You clinics will take place in Douglas, Peel and Port Erin.

Since the start of 2022, Quit4You has already helped 63 people successfully quit smoking.

Each clinic will be by appointment only and will give Island residents the opportunity to meet with one of Quit4You’s Specialist Stop Smoking Advisors at the location of their choosing.

Interim Director of Public Health, Hugo Van Woerden commented: ‘Evidence proves that people who use a stop smoking service are three times more likely to succeed in becoming smoke free. Quit4You offers an individual support plan including nicotine replacement and support with coping mechanisms to give you the best chance of long-term success. The clinics will help to ensure the service is accessible to everyone on the Island, an important part of our vision to improve health and wellbeing in our community.’
