Mark quit smoking with the support of Yorkshire Smokefree in Wakefield. He wanted to share his story with you in his own words:
"I started smoking at 15 and, after a stroke and ongoing health issues, I knew something had to change. With support from Yorkshire Smokefree Wakefield I quit for 17 weeks but, during a difficult time I slipped back and started smoking again.
After further health problems necessitating early retirement, I was ready to try again. With the support of my smoke-free advisor, Clare, I’ve picked up the journey and feel more positive than ever.
My message? Don’t give up - setbacks happen, but it’s never too late to try again.”
Congratulations on your quit, Mark. Clare and the team are proud of you.
