This free programme is delivered by our trusted partners and is designed to support people who want to build confidence, understanding, and motivation before setting a quit date.
What is the Prep to Quit Programme?
Prep to Quit is a short, supportive programme that helps you prepare for stopping smoking in the future.
You don’t have to be ready to quit straight away — this programme is about getting ready.
