Ready To Quit? Call The Quitline on 13 7848

Whether you're thinking about quitting, ready to quit today or trying to cope with cravings and withdrawal symptoms, the Quitline can help.

Quitline is a confidential advice and information service. For the usual cost of a call from your phone, a trained Quitline counsellor can help you to plan and develop strategies to quit smoking and stay smoke-free. You can speak to a Quitline counsellor as many times as you wish to get support throughout your quitting journey.

The Quitline head office is in Victoria, but there are trained Quitline counsellors here in WA. You can:

“Getting the call from Quitline so early on was a game changer. They bailed me out when I was about to go and get cigarettes, and gave me that extra incentive and reminder as to why I’m quitting for good.”
