After 55 years of smoking, Malcom decided to become smokefree. 

55 years of smoking and had taken a toll on Malcom's health and resulted in him having a stroke.

It was then he realised that change was needed, he didn't believe anything else would have done the trick.

He has now managed to successfully stay smokefree now for the best part of 12 weeks using a nicotine inhalator only which he finds amazing, who would have thought this little plastic tube with a little part of nicotine would stop him from smoking.

Malcom said: For me to be able to tell my friends and family that after 55 years of smoking and never once trying to stop, I am now a non-smoker is just unbelievable. It’s just great, everything is just so different now; I am struggling to explain how much better I feel as the list is endless
