How can the Stop Smoking Service help?
The Stop Smoking Service is here to help your workplace to become a smoke-free environment with the assistance of our friendly, specialist advisors. We are a free specialist Public Health service who support people to quit smoking. We offer structured programmes with specialist behavioural support alongside products designed to make quitting easier.
As a service we can support your workplace by:
Providing resources
The Stop Smoking Service can provide resources to your workplace, such as posters, leaflets and workplace cards for you to display to help your staff access support to quit smoking.
Supporting your smokefree policy
We can support you in developing or update any smoke-free policies for your workplace, ensuring you are adhering to smoke-free legislation.
Supporting your staff to quit smoking
A referral can be made from your workplace or an employee can refer themselves into the service a for our one-to-one clinics, which take place on the phone and face to face.
Providing training (can be delivered virtually or in person)
Very Brief Advice Training (VBA) – Equips your staff to be able to have brief informative conversations about smoking, encouraging someone to quit and help someone access stop smoking support either by signposting or referring into the Stop Smoking Service.
Level 2 Advisor Training – Our service will train a member of your staff to become a Level 2 Stop Smoking Advisor and receive ongoing support from us. The Level 2 Advisor will support colleagues to stop smoking and be a point of contact for them.
Your organisation can receive payment from the Stop Smoking Service for providing this in-house service in your workplace.
