Stop Smoking Support - Healthy Lifestyles
Swap to Stop
The Swap to Stop scheme is a nationwide, government initiative that supports people who currently smoke tobacco and wish to swap to vaping to improve their health.
North Lincolnshire Healthy Lifestyles Team offers this free scheme to adult smokers aged 18+ who live, work or study in North Lincolnshire.
As part of the initiative, you will receive a vape starter kit containing a vape, and all the necessary accessories including liquids to cover a four-week treatment pathway. We will contact you four - six weeks after you have been issued your starter kit to see how you are getting on.
To access the Swap to Stop initiative through North Lincolnshire Healthy Lifestyles, simply visit one of our Facilitators at our weekly Swap to Stop drop-in events available throughout North Lincolnshire.
Follow us on Facebook for weekly updates on where our drop-ins are being held:

Stop Smoking Support
Six-week Stop Shops offer a combination of behavioural support alongside providing nicotine replacement therapy in our face-to-face group format. The free nicotine replacement products are only available for your first four weeks with our team; however, we can provide behavioural support for a total of six weeks. After an initial assessment, our facilitators will encourage and support you to set a quit date, once this date is set, with our support, you are expected to work towards the commitment of not taking a single puff of a cigarette. This service aims to help to work towards a total quit status and is not tailored to those who are wanting to cut down.
Stop Shops offer guidance in a friendly, supportive environment where peer support is encouraged and utilised to create an atmospheric, accessible, and enjoyable experience to help you go smoke-free.
