Get your 5 a day and stop smoking advice

Lambeth and Southwark residents can get support to quit smoking while they pick up their groceries at Brixton Market and Blue Market in Bermondsey every Thursday from 11am to 3pm throughout October.

Guy’s and St Thomas’ stop smoking experts are running information stalls as part of Stoptober.

People who want to take up the Stoptober challenge can get information about how to stop smoking and treatments such as nicotine replacement therapy.

Terri Forward, stop smoking service manager, says: “Giving up smoking is not always easy but, with the support of our advisors, people are four times more likely to quit. By attending one of our weekly clinics and talking through everyday issues that trigger smoking we can help you quit smoking for good.”
