National No Smoking Day 2024 #NSD24 #QuitYourWay
Smoking is one of the single largest preventable causes of premature death and ill health in Scotland. It causes approximately 8,260 smoking-related deaths every year in Scotland and is responsible for around 40,766 hospital admissions. Smoking quit attempts in Scotland have been falling since 2011, they have more than halved in the last twelve years. Therefore it is now more important than ever to make a change. Why not to try stop smoking on the National No Smoking Day – ASH Scotland?
Evidence tells us that there is a direct link between using NHS stop-smoking services to support a quit attempt and the continuous decline in people who smoke.
