“My dad said you have to get in touch with this guy because there’s someone at work who was on thirty a day and he just quit and now can’t stand the smell of cigarettes any more. This is different from anything you’ve tried before, go and see this guy.
I came to the stop smoking centre and now a month later I’ve lost all temptation to smoke – and that’s the truth.
Everyone is expecting me to trip up at some point, but they’ve been shocked that I haven’t and I’m just amazed to be honest because now when I walk past or behind a smoker the smell is just repulsive to me.
Three days after the treatment I had a moment of revelation where I knew I was free, that’s when I walked past the smoking corner at work, outside my building. I just looked at them and I thought, what a sad bunch of people and I knew at that point it was all over.
It was as though I’d had an illness – like a cancer victim who’s tried everything and then a doctor comes along, waved a healing want and they were cured. Right now I feel like someone has given me a present, like the best present you could get.”

“I stopped smoking on 6 December 2003 after conversations with friends. My fear was, ‘What if it doesn't work?' After mulling it over I rang for the information pack. The enclosed CD was very interesting. It gave an insight as to why previous attempts with patches, gum and tablets had been hard work and short term, only lasting a few weeks
Can helping staff stop smoking help my business?
Did you know that £10 million a day is lost to cigarette breaks? – How could you use that time in terms of increased profitability? Daryl Hine (see below) reports that he’s saved an hour a day that he can now use more profitably.
If you want to stop smoking or learn how to encourage someone to quit smoking it's salutary to realise that a smoker may take nine breaks of ten minutes each during the working day – around five hours to one day per week spent on smoking. Now, is this good for business?
Good employers may offer their staff help if they want to give up smoking. Seven out of ten smokers say they want to give up, and employers who help them do so are likely to find a healthier, fitter workforce, with the benefit of fewer days lost through sickness.
Take a look at these comments from smokers...
“I was introduced to the stop smoking centre by Rod Caisley from our company, and I think I’m one of 20 guys from the company who have come to the centre to stop smoking. Rod was a forty a day man, but now he’s a nothing a day man and goes quite happily down the pub, apparently, allegedly, although don’t tell Mrs Caisley that….
But out of all the guys who have come to the centre, I’m the only one who has had to return, so out of 20 guys that’s pretty damn good.”
