For over a decade, SMKD has been on the front line, helping the British public to put out their cigarettes and quit smoking for good. We do this day in, day out, all year round. But October see’s a massive surge in people looking for assistance to quit, and we stand ready to help.
Stoptober is a public health campaign in the United Kingdom that encourages smokers to quit smoking for the month of October. The ultimate goal is to help people quit for good. Launched by Public Health England, the campaign provides a range of free resources and support to help people quit. These useful resources include apps, advice, and quit plans. The idea is that if smokers can quit for 28 days, they are five times more likely to quit permanently. Stoptober has gained considerable attention and support, contributing to the broader effort to reduce smoking rates and improve public health.
A study by Oxford University conducted in 2022 showed that vaping was a more effective quitting aid than traditional nicotine replacement therapies.
Using an e-liquid with the right nicotine strength for you can help to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and cravings while you’re in the process of quitting. Furthermore, the hand-to-mouth action and throat hit provided by vaping can mimic the physical sensations of smoking. This makes it easier for some people to transition away from cigarettes.
If you’re looking to quit smoking and need personalised, expert advice, SMKD is here to assist, not just through October, but all year long. Our knowledgeable staff can help you explore various options, including vaping as an alternative to traditional cigarettes. With a wide variety of vape devices and a huge array of e-liquid flavours, we aim to make your journey to a smoke-free life as smooth as possible.
