Asian LEADER 22 October - 4 November 2014 02 www.asianleader.co.uk Asian LEADER 22 October - 4 November 2014 03 www.asianleader.co.uk A large number o local resi- dents are taking on Stop- tober this month to quit smoking. They may take inspira- tion rom Oldham’s frst citizen. By his own admission the Mayor o Oldham was a hardened smoker who had started at a young age – progressing to a 40 cigarettes a day habit. Councillor Fida Hussain con- essed to knowing the dangers and health risks it was causing – but he continued. That was until two years ago when his youngest daughter, aged 7 at the time, emotionally struck a chord by asking: “Do you care about us or do you care about the cigarettes?” “That really hit home there and then,” said the Mayor, who is promoting Stoptober – a nation- al campaign which encourages smokers to quit. “I realised very very quickly I am taking my kids’ rights away rom them and the money I could be spending on them was going in the wrong direction. “Rightully they should be the ones I spend my money on – rather than the £30 a week I was spending on cigarettes.” The Mayor, aged 53, conessed to smoking or 34 years and took up the cigs with an old group o riends who had already taken up the habit. He said: “It was very tempting at that age, as I had so-called riends who were oering cigarettes. It was completely the wrong thing to do, but I did – and by my early 20’s I was a chain-smoker. “I would urge young people who are oered cigarettes to not take notice because they are not your riends. I know this sometimes can be a hard thing to do, but it is the right thing to do. “Anyone who gives you sub- stances o any kind that can dam- age your health and put you in danger are not good people.” The ather-o-fve was constant- ly being pressurised rom his wie, Tanvir and his children to quit. His cigarettes would be thrown away without him knowing and he would ace constant calls or him to pack them in. Councillor Hussain, who is also a ward councillor or Werneth, admits he was rightened by his amily showing shocking images o what smoking can cause to the body – but it ailed to trigger his “willpower to quit”. That was until his youngest daughter’s heart-breaking ques- tion. So two Ramadan’s ago, he de- cided to stub out the cigs or good. He added: “The hardest thing to do is making that initial decision and setting a date to quit. “It’s all about having that will- power and it gets easier over time. It is not only improving my health, but it is also not putting my am- ily’s health at risk. “All smokers will have good rea- sons to quit and I realised that my wie and children were looking out or me. “I am now fnancially better o and I have a better quality o lie with my amily. “So i you are a smoker, consider taking up a challenge like Stopto- ber. There are some exceptional services in Oldham, like the Stop Smoking Service, who do a grand job helping residents quit or good. “I your amily and riends are telling you to stop – listen to them. “So seek out the support and im- prove your lie.” Anyone who wants to quit is urged to contact Oldham’s stop smoking team on 0161 621 7128 or fnd out more online by visiting: www.stoptober.smokeree.nhs.uk Mayor quit 40-a-day Mayor of Oldham’s story
