Should effective services be cut simply due to 'financial pressures'? A near 50% quit rate and falling numbers weren't enough to stop one London borough ceasing it's Stop Smoking Services.. #smoking #ecig #cessation #cuts lgcplus.com/services/healt…

Digital consultations are becoming more widespread and pressure is on to save money; is it time we started exploring other ways to roll out smoking cessation services? Text-message-based intervention trialled in China: journals.plos.org/plosmedicine/a… #smoking #support

Discussing impact of digital platforms for stop smoking interventions across the globe SRNT brilliant speakers. Challenges raised; reach, digital inequities with access and cultural differences. Mapping behaviour change theory is integral. ⁦STOP Trial⁩ Food for thought

Really interesting talks on the association between e-cigarette use and subsequent relapse in smokers trying to quit ⁦SRNT⁩ ⁦STOP Trial⁩ ⁦PublicHealthUK⁩ Perhaps we need more open minded debates about e-cigarettes from a harm reduction perspective 🤔

"Stop smoking practitioners and health professionals should provide behavioural support to smokers who want to use an EC [E-cigarettes] to help them quit smoking." Just 1 recommendation from @PHE_uk new February report suggests #smoking #vaping #cessation gov.uk/government/pub…

New joint report by ActionSmoking&Health & Cancer Research UK found that "36% of authorities had reduced their smoking cessation budgets in 2018, compared with only 4% that had increased them.". Many areas are combining services, but is this the best approach? #smoking #pharmacy pharmaceutical-journal.com/news-and-analy…
