NHS Stop Smoking Service website.
They are a Specialist Stop Smoking Service that has been set up by the NHS to provide advice and support for smokers who want to give up.

When you go smokefree, you are up to four times more likely to succeed if you use NHS support and stop smoking medicines such as patches or gum to manage your cravings.
