No Smoking Day - your chance to quit forever

Causeway Hospital is marking the day with a no smoking event to encourage visitors and staff, and give them the support they need to stop smoking.

The Smoking Cessation Team will on be on hand all day on Wednesday to give advice and answer questions.

Smoking is an addiction, but one where help is readily available.

This is why Causeway Hospital is mounting a major campaign to persuade people who smoke to quit, by making No Smoking Day, a key turning point.

Sonia Shirlow , Smoking Cessation Nurse, said: “Smoking causes 2300 deaths every year in Northern Ireland, No Smoking Day is the prefect opportunity for smokers to take that first step to giving up cigarettes.

“Stopping smoking is the single most important thing that a person can do to improve their own health and the health of those around them.”
