NHS Tayside’s Quit Your Way team visited Tayside Deaf Hub today to host an information session about the local support available to stop smoking.

The session, which was supported by a BSL interpreter, took place during Deaf Awareness Week and provided advice and information about the free smoking cessation support services delivered through local pharmacies across Tayside.

People can visit any local community pharmacy or contact the Quit Your Way service in Tayside on 01382 424127 or tay.smokingcessationservice@nhs.scot to find out about all the ways NHS Tayside can help support people to become smoke free

An excellent and informative post from Wallace Vets to highlight the dangers of to***co smoke to our much loved pets.

Your local pharmacy can give you advice and support to make a quit attempt. Please drop us a message if you would like more information.

While we often focus on the dangers of smoking with regard to our own health, our pets are frequently the silent victims of both second and thirdhand smoke.

Because pets live close to the floor and groom themselves frequently, they don't just breathe in toxins—they ingest them through their fur, bedding & other soft furnishings. This exposure significantly increases the risk of respiratory issues, oral cancers and lymphoma in cats, while dogs face higher rates of nasal and lung cancer, as well as other respiratory problems related to smoke inhilation, depending on their breed's snout length. Even small pets like birds are highly sensitive, often developing severe respiratory distress from trace amounts of smoke.

To protect your best friend/s, always smoke outdoors, wash your hands before petting them, wash their bedding regularly and keep your home’s air clean.

If you're concerned that your pet may be at risk, or if they have any health issues that are worrying you, please contact us on:- 01382 549600📞🐾
