Truro will launch as Smoke-Free Site on 31st May

Each year, Public Health England, the NHS and local support organisations work together to support communities to reduce smoking and take positive steps towards better health.

This year, as part of National No Smoking Day and Stoptober, Better Cornwall's Community Team, are collaborating with partners Healthy Cornwall and Public Health, to establish its centres across Cornwall as Smoke-Free Sites.

The NHS highlights that quitting smoking or vaping is a journey, and that support is available at every stage - whether people are:

Ready to quit, or
Need help staying smoke-free
The NHS Better Health website offers practical tips and support to help people through tough times, stay focused, and quit for good:
