Free clinics are open across the Lancaster and Morecambe area to help people quit smoking in 2026.
The Smokefree Lancashire network of local community hubs provide expert guidance, practical tools, and support from trained stop smoking advisers and ex-smokers.
Free Smokefree Lancashire clinics are running at community venues across the district, including:
• Stanleys Community Centre – Morecambe
• Positive Futures – Lancaster
• Marsh Community Centre – Lancaster
• Skerton Community Centre – Lancaster
• St Chad’s Church Hall – Lancaster
• The Cornerstone – Lancaster
• Bay Veterans Association, Arndale centre – Morecambe
These hubs offer one to one support, nicotine replacement products, personalised plans, and regular check ins to give people the best chance of quitting successfully.
“Every year, people make New Year’s resolutions with the best of intentions, but sticking to them can be tough without the right support," said Councillor Mandy Bannon, cabinet member with responsibility for Communities, Well-being and Partnerships at Lancaster City Council.
"Quitting smoking is one of the best gifts someone can give themselves and their family. It means more energy, better health, and extra money in their pocket each month.
“These local clinics offer practical advice and understanding from people who know exactly how hard it can be. Help is right here in our communities, and it can make a real difference to families across the district.”

Alongside expert advice and practical support, many of the community hubs also offer free activities to help people on their smoke-free journey.
Marsh Community Centre runs a welcoming wellbeing group and a weekly walk, providing encouragement and companionship for anyone looking to quit.
And More Music will soon launch 'Monday Morning Melodies', a new singing session at Morecambe Library. Singing is a fun way to boost lung health and wellbeing, and these sessions offer a positive distraction for those wanting to quit smoking.
