Our service offers treatment services to smokers which can double their chances of making a successful quit attempt. We have an amazing 67% success rate! This free service is available to all smokers in Hillingdon.
The NHS’s stop smoking programme involves:

Session 1


The Information session where the stop smoker advisors explain the treatment programme, answer your questions, and provide information on preparing to quit, along with advice on nicotine replacement therapy (NRT), Zyban and Champix.

Session 2


The day you quit! And how to cope.

Session 3-8


Offer support during the most difficult stages of withdrawal and cover various topics, which may include controlling weight gain, cravings and how to make sure NRT, Champix and Zyban are working properly.

These sessions provide an opportunity for people to raise their own particular concerns, and also to share their experience with the advisors and others through difficult times.
