Quit is committed to helping all Australians who smoke have access to the support they need to quit. We ensure the work we do reaches a broad audience, however we also recognise there are people within our communities who, for a variety of reasons, have a higher smoking rate and find it more challenging to access quit services. We want to ensure all Australians of all gender identity,
Venturing to somewhere new or unexplored in your neighbourhood can be a great distraction while first quitting.
