Support to help you quit smoking

Why Quit?

Smoking is harmful to your child. Even if you don't smoke in the same room as them, smoke remains on your clothing and in your breath for several hours after your last cigarette.

Recognised health complications include:

  • Cot death (also known as sudden infant death syndrome, or SIDS) - this is twice as likely in babies whose mother smokes
  • Asthma - your child is more likely to develop asthma and experience more frequent and severe asthma attacks
  • Other serious breathing problems such as pneumonia
  • Meningitis
  • Ear infections which may cause long term hearing loss
  • Increase numbers of viral infections

You could also save at least £2,750 a year by quitting a 20 cigarette a day habit!
