Stop smoking groups with Feel Good Suffolk

Ready to stop smoking, but don’t want to go it alone? 

Feel Good Suffolk offers free, friendly group stop smoking sessions across Suffolk to help you quit for good, with expert guidance and peer support every step of the way as well as free medications and tools.  

Quitting smoking is one of the most important things you can do for your health — and research shows you’re much more likely to succeed when you have the right support. Our group sessions bring people together who are on the same journey, helping you stay motivated and confident.  

 

What are group stop smoking sessions?

Our friendly group sessions are led by trained Stop Smoking Advisers. You’ll meet other people who are quitting too, in a supportive and non-judgemental space.

Together, you’ll:

✓ Share experiences with people who understand
✓ Learn practical ways to manage cravings and triggers
✓ Track your progress and celebrate milestones
✓ Build confidence to stay smoke-free

Groups run for six weeks, with regular check-ins afterwards to help you stay on track.

What support will I receive?

When you join a Feel Good Suffolk group, you’ll get access to:

✔ Expert advice from trained Stop Smoking Advisors
✔ Free stop smoking products, including Nicotine Replacement Therapy and vapes 
✔ Carbon monoxide monitoring, so you can see real improvements in your health
✔ Tools and strategies to handle cravings, stress and setbacks
✔ Encouragement and accountability from others in the group 

Everything is tailored to help you find the approach that works best for you.  

Why quit with a group?

People who stay smoke‑free for 28 days are up to five times more likely to quit for good. Group support can make a huge difference by helping you stay motivated and feel less alone.  

Stopping smoking can mean: 

  • Easier breathing and more energy 
  • Better long‑term health 
  • Improved sense of taste and smell 
  • More money in your pocket 

Many people who attend Feel Good Suffolk groups say the shared experience and weekly encouragement helped them succeed after years of trying.
