| QUIT in Action We are a specialist service set up to address tobacco use in the South Asian communities in the UK. We motivate and support tobacco users who want to quit to break free from their addiction. Smoking and smokeless (chewing) tobacco use has a high prevalence in some South Asian groups and this has a disproportionate impact upon their health. South Asians are up to 50% more likely to suffer from heart disease and diabetes type 2. Our services are delivered in 5 South Asian languages and in English. We have over 10 years of UK wide experience of delivering our services to the various South Asian communities in the UK in a culturally appropriate manner. We have handled over 200,000 calls from South Asian tobacco users. We have an excellent resource center for individuals and health professionals who want literature, advice and support on their local smoking cessation projects. We are a part of the registered charity QUIT® See us in action.
