A smoke free life starts with a smoke free day

No Smoking Day is an annual event that encourages people to stop smoking.

It’s a chance to kick off your stop smoking journey and start healthier habits. 

Feel Good Suffolk can help you stop smoking. There is lots of advice on where to start in our Stop Smoking pages or you can get support from a Feel Good Suffolk Advisor by filling in an online form.
