Mr Williams, from Grange Park, Northampton, smoked 20 cigarettes a day before applying to the service but said he has not smoked for four months since using it."It was Covid that prompted me, being at home a lot and evaluating your health and money. I thought this was the time.
"My health was starting to suffer. I've had attempts in the past ranging from a day to a couple of moths. "I feel much better. My body is still getting rid of the stuff that's been there 30 years, but my breathing is a lot better." He said he had even cut down on using the vape he was provided with and aims to stop doing so completely.
