A Paisley gran - who is adopting a healthier lifestyle after a heart attack-has told a Scottish Government minister she could not do it without the support of a local pharmacy.
Frances Robertson met with public health minister Jenni Minto during her recent visit to Abbey Pharmacy, where she learned more about its role in helping people quit smoking.
Staff at the Gauze Street facility have been instrumental in supporting Frances to kick the habit.
The 66-year-old, who suffered a devastating heart attack just two weeks ago, is determined to stop smoking once and for all and has embarked on the Quit Your Way 12-week programme.
Frances, a gran-of-three, said: "I've spent my whole life on and off cigarettes but now this is my chance to get healthy.
"I've had the kick up the bum I need and stopping smoking is one of the lifestyle changes I'm making.
"When I had the heart attack, I was taken to the Royal Alexandra Hospital emergency department.
