Campaigns
What’s Worse
The What’s Worse campaign was developed by the Department of Health in the United Kingdom and was adapted by the Cancer Institute NSW for use in Australia.
This latest campaign focuses on the difficult situation of a mother communicating the realities of her illness to her young children. It emphasises the real health consequences of smoking and how it affects not only the smoker, but their family as well.
Smokers are encouraged to stop smoking for good.
Your smoking is not just about you.
The campaign will air from August 19 through to September 8, 2010
Want to quit?
An important part of any quit attempt is access to information and support, which is available through the Quitline telephone support service or by talking to your GP or Pharmacist.
The Quitline is a free confidential and non-judgmental service run by specially-trained people. Quitline advisors know how difficult it can be for smokers to quit for good, and that it may take several attempts to be successful.
Quitline advisors can provide information on any aspect of giving up smoking and can provide free self-help materials and also offers a free telephone call-back support service to help smokers through the quitting process.
