Essex Working Well is launching a new FREE 8-week Vaping Cessation Programme for employees across Essex.
Vaping can be a highly effective tool for helping people stop smoking and is substantially less harmful than smoking. However, it isn’t risk-free, and some people who have successfully made the switch can find it difficult to stop vaping when they’re ready. [nhs.uk], [nhs.uk]
Our new programme offers weekly structured telephone support, designed to fit around busy working lives.
Support includes:
✅ Identifying vaping habits and triggers
✅ Understanding and “surfing” cravings
✅ Managing nicotine withdrawal
✅ Developing practical coping strategies
✅ Creating a personalised quit plan
✅ Building confidence and motivation
✅ Support to stay vape-free without returning to smoking
Our existing programme materials emphasise identifying triggers, developing coping strategies and gradually changing vaping behaviours.
📅 We’re taking bookings for our January clinics now.
If you’re an Essex employer and would like to offer this free support to your employees, contact the Essex Working Well team to find out more. essex.workingwell@nhs.net
