Robyn's story

I set present goals for myself when I quit.

I’d always wanted a Kenwood Chef mixer and thanks to a period of being smokefree I bought it. It’s been more than 10 years now. I’ve not spent thousands on smoking and instead been able to spend on my hobbies and interests.

The bonus is I have clear fully functioning lungs, senses of taste and smell. I don’t have to wash my hair daily because it stinks. My clothes stay fresh smelling, and the smokes odour doesn’t wreck my perfume.

And for my hobbies, I’ve been able to spend money on quality materials instead of budget.

Quality of life is fabulous.
