The new website provides details of free, confidential stop smoking services, as well as resources and information about smoking and vaping. The website is part of a national effort championed by the UK Government to create the first ever smoke free generation. Approximately 18.4% of people aged 18 and over in Coventry and 13.9% in Warwickshire smoke (source: Annual Population Survey, Office for National Statistics 2022). Those who wish to quit often struggle due to their addiction to nicotine. Over 80% of smokers start before they turn 20, most as children (source: Tobacco and Vapes Bill 2024). The new Smoke Free website and enhanced services and initiatives aim to tackle this by providing evidence-based support that is free, non-judgemental and easy to access. People aged 12 and over, who live, work, or are registered with Coventry or Warwickshire GP are entitled to free support. Those who sign up to their local stop smoking service will get access to: 12 weeks of one-to-one support (face-to-face or virtual) with a specialist stop smoking practitioner Help to manage cravings and withdrawal symptoms Free nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) products or Vape Quit Kits (18+ only) Access to a Smoke Free App People who quite smoking with the support of a stop smoking service are 3x more likely to quit for good!
