Kick the Habit and Embrace Victory in 2023!

The New Year represents an ideal opportunity to embark on a journey towards a healthier, smoke-free existence. Quitting smoking not only enhances your health but can also lead to substantial financial savings.

Upon cessation of smoking, you will notice almost instant enhancements to your health. After 8 hours, your oxygen levels will considerably increase, and within a few days, your lungs will begin to expel the residual smoking toxins, making your breathing easier.

With assistance, you are four times more likely to successfully quit compared to going solo

Whether this is your initial effort or you’ve attempted before, LiveWire is here to provide you with the resources and motivation necessary for success, offering support such as individual appointments and walk-in sessions (where prior booking is not needed).

LiveWire trained counselors can also collaborate with you to craft a customized quit plan. This plan involves establishing a quit date, providing strategies to tackle cravings, and continuously encouraging you through the entire journey.

Assistance to stop smoking if you are expecting

If you’re expecting, there’s no better moment to initiate a beneficial change for your own and your family’s wellbeing. Shielding your baby from tobacco smoke is one of the most positive actions you can take to ensure your child starts life healthily.

Each cigarette you smoke contains over 4,000 chemicals, many of which pose threats and may limit the crucial oxygen supply to your baby.

In the past five years, 3,930 individuals in Warrington have successfully quit through LiveWire’s smoking cessation service, which has supported them in their journey to quit permanently.

Cllr Maureen McLaughlin, cabinet member for health, wellbeing, and social care, stated: “We are delighted to observe that smoking rates in Warrington continue to decline year after year, and it’s time to be part of this growing movement. 

“Stopping smoking can be challenging, but it’s never too late to make that choice. Take your first step today – go to LiveWire and allow us to assist you in breaking the habit for good.”
