The primary objective of Stoptober is to generate quit attempts amongst smokers in England. Latest available data show that 16% of smokers in England reported making a Stoptober quit attempt in 2017.<\/p>
Although switching to vaping is not the primary objective of the campaign, latest figures show that 42% of smokers who made a Stoptober quit reported using an e-cigarette in 2017.<\/p>
In 2017, 8% of smokers making a Stoptober quit attempt reported still not smoking by early November.

Public Health England (PHE) is directed under the Tobacco Control Plan for England to include within quit smoking campaigns messages about the relative safety of e-cigarettes and to continue to provide smokers and the public with clear, evidence based and accurate information on the relative harm of nicotine, e-cigarettes, other nicotine delivery systems and smoked tobacco, to enable informed decision-making.<\/p>
PHE has worked with the Independent British Vape Trade Association and its members to reassure smokers about the relative safety of e-cigarettes and to encourage smokers to switch.<\/p>
