A pharmacy is urging smokers to kick the habit on No Smoking Day.

Somerset Gardens Pharmacy, in Creighton Road, Tottenham, is taking part in the national day on Wednesday, March 11.

Nearly one in five people smoke but two thirds want to give up.

Pharmacy manager Rahul Gajree said: “We understand that the majority of smokers want to stop smoking, but many find the task too daunting.

“No Smoking Day is the perfect opportunity to inspire smokers to quit for good.

“With support, smokers are more likely to succeed in their attempt to quit, which is why the team at Somerset Gardens Pharmacy are committed to supporting our customers with their smoking cessation.”
