THE Scottish Government has commenced a new smoking cessation program through pharmacies under the brand "Quit Your Way - with our support".
Posters displaying the logo will be on display in every Scottish pharmacy resulting from research by national health board NHS Health Scotland which found that having a single identity for smoking cessation services across the country improved user uptake.
The Scottish stop smoking helpline Smokeline has already rebranded as Quit Your Way Scotland and is run by NHS 24 available both on the phone and through webchat.
The government has made having a 'smoke-free generation', with smoking rates of just 5% by 2034, a key policy pledge.
