Established in 1926 as the National Society of Non-Smokers

Established in 1926 as the National Society of Non-Smokers, the group became known as QUIT following attainment of charitable status in 1983. Throughout its existence, the group engaged in a range of campaigns against smoking, and provided guidance and support for people wishing to stop smoking. The group dissolved in 2018.

The collection contains campaign books, a minute book, a photo album, correspondence, documentation of a ‘National No Smoking Day’ campaign, and a comprehensive set of trade literature.
