‘Smokefree Aotearoa’ by 2025
It's World Smokefree Day and a time to reflect on the country’s goal to be ‘Smokefree Aotearoa’ by 2025.
Palmy was one the first city’s in New Zealand to encourage public places being smokefree. And now, Palmy’s gone one step further to encourage public places to also be vapefree.
Keeping Palmy’s outdoor spaces smokefree and vapefree means we can all enjoy the city’s sportsfields, parks and playgrounds with your whanau and friends.
Let’s continue showing the world we’re proud to be a city that’s leading the way in being smokefrree and vapefree.
