Stubtober is a global health campaign to encourage smokers and vapers to Go Smokefree and Vapefree.
Our mission is to help individuals live their lives free from the risks of terminal illnesses and serious diseases caused by smoking and vaping. According to Cancer Research, 40% of cancers are linked to bad lifestyle choices, and we aim to change this by promoting a smokefree world.
Our vision is simple yet powerful: we want to help turn the world smokefree.
Going smokefree or vapefree is 90% less harmful and also significantly reduces the burden on healthcare systems.
If everyone went smokefree tomorrow according to ASH, we could free up 1,000,000 GP appointments in the UK each year.
This would also save the NHS billions of pounds in direct and indirect costs.
The World Health Organization considers the tobacco epidemic to be one of the biggest public health threats the world has ever faced, killing more than 8 million people, worldwide.
National targets to be smokefree in England by 2030, Wales by 2030, Scotland by 2034, and Northern Ireland by 2035.
Stubtober is committed to supporting these goals through comprehensive support and resources.
