Our children

The tobacco companies are simply recruiting new customers on a daily basis and the facts are terrifying.

  • Over 163,000 youngsters get hooked every year in the UK alone. That's 450 every day. Or put another way, equivalent to one primary school EVERY single day.
  • Among 11 year olds 1% are regular smokers.
  • By the age 15, 21% of youngsters are regular smokers.
  • Over 80% of smokers start as teenagers.
  • Adolescents with both parents smoking are four times more likely to be a smoker than their peers whose parents had never smoked.
  • 90% of children are aware of smoking by the age of 5.

Allen Carr's Easyway has recently published "Smoking Sucks" our latest book on helping parents to help prevent their child becoming a smoker.

Smoking Sucks

Smoking Sucks! is a unique tool for parents and teachers which provides expert advice on how to steer young people away from smoking. It explains why the most commonly used approaches don't work and provides one that does.

Smoking Sucks! contains a cleverly designed and powerful pull-out comic called THE GAME for children to read. Written by stop smoking experts at Allen Carr's Easyway and illustrated in the popular manga style, THE GAME gets the anti-smoking message across in a way that kids understand and enjoy and therefore respond to positively. Readers can find out more about the main characters in the story as well as quizzes and games at http://smokingsucks.co.uk/

Allen Carr's Easyway method is world-renowned for having helped millions of people quit smoking. In an innovative and effective way, Smoking Sucks! applies this successful formula to the issue of children smoking.

Smoking Sucks! is an indispensable aid to ensuring that young people remain happy, healthy, and smoke-free.
