They are suitable for anyone who wants to give up: heavier smokers may find this intensive support especially helpful. The group support provides an opportunity for quitters to share how they are getting on &#8211; their ups and downs &#8211; and provide general encouragement. The groups run for about 8 weeks on average.<br \/>\nTwo new group support sessions have been set up, one on Wednesday evenings at Glenrothes Hospital, and the other on Thursday afternoons at Pitteuchar Health Centre.<br \/>\nIndividual support sessions with a trained adviser are available in a number of local GP practices and community venues and are available at different times, including evenings. The support consists of a 7-12 week programme of support to help you stop smoking, plus advice on medication such as NRT and Champix\u00ae.<\/div>  <\/div><!-- end div.wp-spoiler -->\n<div id=\"wp-spoiler-8\" class=\"wp-spoiler wpui-hashable wpui-narrow wpui-styles\" data-style=\"wpui-narrow\">  <h3 class=\"wp-spoiler-title wpui-hashable fade-true slide-true open-false\">NHS Tayside<\/h3><div class=\"wpui-hidden wp-spoiler-content\">Throughout Tayside, community groups, stop smoking classes and one to one support is available from GPs and Pharmacies.
