Aims and objectives of service

The aim of the service is to provide a stop smoking service for Hampshire that contributes to the reduction in the prevalence of tobacco and nicotine use, and in tobacco-related health inequalities.

The objectives are to:

• Increase the number of people who make aided quit attempts and successfully quit tobacco and nicotine, with a focus on local priority groups.
• Work collaboratively to support people who are nicotine dependent and want to quit, by providing access to person-centred, evidence-based behavioural support and stop smoking aids.
• Work in partnership and collaborate with other organisations across systems to promote quitting and establishing a smokefree and nicotine-free culture.
