Give Up Smokes for Good: Stephen Goldsmith will be quitting smoking as part of his contribution to the campaign!
11 05 2013
Hey you mob, check out this poster!
The elder featured in this poster, Uncle Stephen Goldsmith, will be quitting smoking as part of his contribution to the campaign.
What’s really exciting is he’s allowed us to video his journey, as he heads towards becoming smoke free.
Monday 6 May is his last day as a smoker.
This is a very brave thing to do, and we hope it encourages other members of our community to give it a try.
Videos will start to appear on our facebook page and website in the next couple of weeks.
Please support Uncle Stevie by sharing his poster, liking this page and getting the message out there, and leaving comments of support.
If you’re an ex-smoker, leave us a good quitting tip for unky.
Nukkan Ya! Please Share!!!!!!
