Quit smoking after seminar

A free "quit smoking" seminar will be held at the Peninsula Community Centre in Woy Woy on Wednesday, May 2, from 12pm.

The seminar will be provided by psychologist Mr James McLennan and the Cancer Institute of NSW.

Mr McLennan has helped hundreds of people to quit while working for seven years at St Vincent's Hospital in Sydney, according to community centre co-ordinator Ms Michelle Remy.

The seminar aims to give the facts about the habit, withdrawals and cravings, the medications available to help you quit, the effects of cutting down, the health benefits of quitting, myths and barriers.

Following the seminar, those interested in quitting can choose to attend a subsequent six-week group course.

With inquires, phone 4341 9333.
