Frequently Asked Questions
Is Kick It right for me if I have a mental health condition?
Yes. Many people who use our service have a mental health condition. Quitting smoking can bring benefits to both physical and mental health. Our advisors offer personalised, non-judgemental support and will work with you at a pace that feels right.
Can I have evening or weekend appointments?
We aim to be as flexible as possible. Appointment availability may vary, but phone support is available and we’ll always try to offer a time that works for you.
What if I don’t like the stop smoking products or nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) I’m given?
That’s absolutely fine. Not everything works for everyone. Your advisor will review your options with you and make changes if needed, so your support feels right for you.
How long does it take to quit smoking?
Everyone’s quit journey is different. You’ll be supported through the most important early weeks of quitting, with regular check-ins to help you stay on track and build confidence.
I’m in my 70s – is there any point in stopping now?
Yes. Stopping smoking at any age brings health benefits. Many people notice improvements in breathing, circulation and energy levels within weeks of quitting.
What if I'm not a heavy smoker?
You don’t need to be a heavy smoker to benefit from quitting. Even smoking a small number of cigarettes increases health risks, and our service is here to support anyone who wants to stop.
