Put it out!

Kicking the Habit

By Charlotte Denton

Well we all know the dangers of smoking and what it can do to our health… From passive to direct smoking, it's something that affects every one.

Whether you're a smoker or not, the government has taken action and a new smoking ban is being implemented this coming July.

As the first generation of the 21st century, is this new law a positive or negative idea?

As a smoker myself I actually agree completely with the new law and so to prepare myself for the ban in July, I tried to give up smoking for 3 days!

Could I resist the temptation? It was actually harder than I thought!

Take a listen to my ‘3 days in the life of a hopeful non smoker’.
