An assistant manager at Game, Kimberley has lived in Romford for the last six years, and packed in smoking after 13 years last July.

“I just decided one day that I was fed up of it - always having to pop outside to smoke, that horrible feeling of needing a cigarette and not being able to have one when in work - and the costs were really starting to go up at over £6.50 a packet.

“I refused to let myself fail, and when I really had those cravings I’d use the inhaler.

“I wish everyone good luck who’s trying to quit, it’s honestly the best thing I’ve ever done, and I don’t miss it one bit.”
