If you smoke, giving up is probably the greatest single step you can take to improve your health. In the UK, approximately 10 million adults (about a quarter of the population) smoke cigarettes. 25% of men in the UK are smokers compared with 23% of women.
Smoking is one of the biggest causes of death and illness in the UK. Every year, around 114,000 smokers die from smoking-related diseases, such as heart disease and lung cancer. About 70% of smokers say that they want to stop smoking, but most believe they are unable to. However, around half of all smokers eventually manage to give up.
