The range includes an interactive QuitCoach, which gives users ideas and suggestions tailored to the individual’s needs.

“It’s about offering as much choice as possible,” says Quitline’s chief executive, Paula Snowden. “As well as getting help by phone or through a fact-to-face provider, smokers wanting to give up can get online advice with QuitCoach.

“They can order patches, gum or lozenges, sign up for text support, register for quit  blogs and see how much money they are saving with a quit stats tool.”
