Since its inception, over 1 million people throughout the world have completed the Smokenders program — this includes over 35,000 Australians! Smokenders is widely recognised as the most successful quit smoking program in the world.

People from all walks of life have successfully completed Smokenders. Furthermore, many professional people, such as doctors, nurses and other medical experts, have also used Smokenders to beat the smoking habit. All Smokenders programs in Australia are conducted in English with provisions for non-English speakers. Please call or email us if you require further information about translation services.

All participants receive the written Smokenders Guarantee. And for the future, Smokenders is there long after the program is over. We are just a phone call away for any assistance.

Briefly, Smokenders is a practical and hands-on program to quit smoking whereby the smoker identifies and deals with all the issues pertaining to their particular habit — while they are still smoking. The ‘process’ allows for the participant to keep smoking up to the fifth weekly meeting. During this period the smoker is dealing with all aspects of their habit as well as being weaned off the addictive nicotine drug.

Most smokers have tried to quit or cut down at least once before! This will make no difference to their potential success. Smokers shouldn't blame themselves for being unable to quit smoking — the fact is that they never really broke the habit effectively and that’s why they have been unsuccessful.

In addition to our programs held for the general public, we also conduct the programs for the staff of private corporations and government departments. We have a host of testimonials you can browse through. We assist employers to go smoke-free with the least amount of disruption. Please call us on 1800 02 1000 or email us.

Here is a true story: Our business was highly successful for many years because of our unique approach to helping smokers to stop smoking. Then an array of razzle dazzle, quick fix products and programs were introduced promising much. People tried those products in droves. Our business slowed. But each of these so-called magic bullets, failed to deliver fully on their promise. Simply put, addiction cannot be chewed, lasered, patched nor hypnotized away.
