National No Smoking Day is on Wednesday 12th March 2025 - The best time to quit is now!

The No Smoking Day campaign aims to help people who want to stop smoking and encourage those who may be hesitant to make a quit attempt, by creating a supportive, informative environment and highlighting the many sources of help available in Fife. 

Across the country around three quarters of a million smokers will make a quit attempt around this time of year. This year’s local campaign is called "The best time to quit is now" and aims to highlight the positive benefits quitting smoking can have for smokers and those around them.
