Smokers are urged to quit for Valentine’s day


It can be hard if you are a young smoker to see the long term health consequences of an addiction to tobacco. How about something a little more immediate that young smokers can relate to? The Department of Health are urging smokers to quit for Valentine’s Day – their research shows that many people find smokers less attractive.
  • 74% of 18-24 year olds claimed they would not kiss someone who had just smoked.
  • 76% of 18-24 year olds agreed that smoking makes people less attractive.
  • 64% of 35-44 year olds said they would refuse a kiss from a smoker.
  • 47% of those polled said that if they knew someone was a smoker they would think twice about starting a serious relationship.
If you are a young smoker and are considering quitting call the Smokers’ Clinic today on 0207 882 8230.
