Swap to Stop this No Smoking Day

In the last year, Richmond’s Stop Smoking Service has successfully supported over 120 locals to give up cigarettes. It helps to talk to an expert – get free, personalised support to quit for good this March. 

No Smoking Day falls on Wednesday 12 March this year, and we know that quitting cigarettes can be easier said than done – but it’s never too late to stop, and there’s no need to go it alone. 

In fact, getting free support from our friendly and experienced Stop Smoking Advisors is proven to give you the best chance of quitting successfully, and there are lots of options to choose from. 

They’ll work with you to find the best support to suit your needs, ranging from our Swap to Stop scheme – which offers a free vape kit with three months of supplies as a quitting aid for smokers 18 and over – to Nicotine Replacement Therapies (NRT) and tips for managing withdrawal symptoms and triggers. 

Over the next week, our advisors will be visiting the following locations. Pop by and have a face-to-face chat about how we can help you.

• Wednesday 12 March, 10am to 3pm, Twickenham Civic Centre reception
• Friday 14 March, 11am to 4pm, Kneller Gardens, Meadway (TW2 6PH). This is part of our community health bus programme

If you can’t make it out to speak to our team in person, you can get in touch with us anytime by:

• Filling out our simple contact form, and a member of our Stop Smoking team will get in touch
• Calling our 24/7 freephone line: 0800 011 4558
• Emailing us: stopsmokingteam@richmond.gov.uk

You know you want to quit, and we know you can. If you’ve tried quitting before, give it another go, this time with the support proven to work.

Don’t just take our word for it. A previous Stop Smoking Service user said:

"Thank you so much for your support and encouragement in my quest to give up smoking after 15 years. You and your team do an invaluable job, which is greatly appreciated and has led to my successful cessation of smoking."
