Smokers hoping to give up in time for England going smokefree in July now have an
added motivation to quit for good. Cancer Research UK has launched a new online 
initiative encouraging people to raise sponsorship for the charity in support of
their attempt to quit.

www.sponsormetoquit.org allows would-be-quitters’ family and friends to support 
their efforts, with all money raised going towards Cancer Research UK.

Once smokers have made the decision to try to stop smoking and to ask those around
them to sponsor their attempt, they can build their own personalised webpage by 
visiting
