Karen

The most rewarding part of my role is empowering young people to make informed choices regarding their health and wellbeing. We work in partnership with schools, providing young people with access to education and the most up to date information around smoking and vaping.

Barbora

Pregnancy Stop Smoking Specialist

Pregnancy is an ideal window of opportunity for a pregnant woman to stop smoking for good, because she is not just thinking about her own health, she is thinking about her baby’s health too. I really enjoy delivering training on this topic to midwives and maternity support workers, engaging with Leicestershire communities to raise awareness. My work not only influences healthier choices of both mum and baby, but potentially the whole family, and I welcome the opportunity to promote the advantages of smoke free homes.

Arfan

Stop Smoking Service Advisor

I have a passion for supporting people to make positive lifestyle changes. Stopping smoking during pregnancy benefits the health of the mother and reduces the risk of harm to the baby, so it gives me a great sense of satisfaction when a client has a successful quit attempt. I enjoy working in University Hospitals Leicester which gives me an opportunity to provide face to face support to clients, interact with staff, and be part of the hospital project to help save babies lives.
