Help for employees and customers who want to stop smoking?

In the lead up to the implementation of smokefree legislation, many smokers may think about quitting. The Dudley Stop Smoking Service has a range of services available across Dudley. It is part of the NHS and provides free support and advice on how to quit with access to treatments such as patches etc. on prescription for people registered with a Dudley GP. We run weekly support groups and most GP surgeries have trained staff that can offer one to one appointments. Some pharmacists also offer support to quit.

In addition they can run support groups for your staff and customers in your premises, these generally run over 6-7 weeks and we need a minimum of 5 people signed up to attend.

Staff and customers can ring the Dudley Stop Smoking Service freephone information line on 0800 0850 652 to access these services.

Alternatively employees can access support from:

The NHS Smoking Helpline - you can speak to a specialist adviser by calling 0800 169 0 169 (lines are open daily from 7am to 11pm)
