THE first Stop Smoking Shop in Wales opened its doors yesterday in Cwmbran.
Dozens of people visited the shop at Monmouth Walk in Cwmbran Shopping Centre, which offers a free support service and on prescription to help smokers kick the habit.
Liz Rawlins, working with Stop Smoking Wales, was at the shop opening yesterday morning.
She said: “We had lots of people popping their heads in and asking about the service and about four or five people went straight to an advisor to sign up.”
Customers can visit on a drop in basis and the shop is open Monday to Friday between 9am and 5.30pm with Saturday openings planned from February.
There are three ways to engage with the service: in person at the shop, by phone on 0800 085 2219 or online at stopsmokingwales.com
