Do you work with Children and Families?
Did you know that Children exposed to secondhand smoke are more
at risk of asthma, colds, ear problems, and chest infections?
Even if you smoke when they're at school, out playing or just before
they get in the car, secondhand smoke will still be around, waiting for
your kids to breathe it.
Would you like to find out how to protect your kids from harmful
secondhand smoke?
