Quit Blogs

Star in Quitline's new ads

Hi bloggers

We're looking for people who have quit smoking with the help of Quitline to take part in our new advertising campaign.

We're looking for all different kinds of people. Shooting will take place in early March in the Wellington region so it would be ideal (but not essential!) if you were living in the area.

To register your interest, please email Sarah Woods: sarahw@quit.org.nz
It would be very helpful if you could include some information about yourself and your quitting journey.

Many thanks!

Hi yas01. Go easy on yourself, you have just been through a bloody scary ordeal. Its ok for us to sit here and judge, we are not in your position. I think that if I were in your position I might have given in to the temptation too. Just concentrate on looking after yourself and your family at the moment and go easy on yourself, as you said you are only human. Take carexx

Thanks horlicks, just read your blog with tears flowing down my face. Just had another big shock. They start with a big bang then rock & roll.
We are very lucky so far though we live out in Hornby no where near the city thankfully.
Will go make a cuppa at least we have power now!
Will be in touch soon, thanks xx

My thoughts are with you and everyone else from canterbury. We had quite a big one in Gisborne in 07 so can understand the stress and uncertain feelings. Stay strong everyone.

Kind Regards.
