Congratulations Pare, quitting smoking cold turkey is a huge achievement and it’s great to hear you are using your breathing tool throughout the day.

We are proud of you and the effort you are putting in every day. Keep up the good work and keep making these healthy choices a habit. Every smokefree day is a win!

During World Smokefree Month Patuheuheu Ngati Haka (Waiohau) celebrated their Kaumatua Ball (Te Whakanuia o nga Kaumatua) proudly sponsored by Hapai Te Hauora - Maori Public Health, Te Runanga o Ngati Manawa, St Johns, Te Puna Ora o Mataatua Charitable Trust, C17 Trust, Salvation Army and Papanui Trust. It was a smokefree event that reinforced the importance of health and wellbeing in our whakapapa. This event was great because, many grandparents are concerned about the long-term health of their mokopuna because they are now living with the consequences of their own health choices. Parents tend to focus more on their children’s immediate health and wellbeing. Understanding these different perspectives may help us shape more meaningful engagement and support strategies. Congratulations whanau, we had a Ball🎉

To start off our World Smokefree May we attended an amazing day at the Health & Wellbeing Expo 2026 in Kawerau yesterday. Thank you to the MSD staff for organising such a great event. Hopefully this becomes an annual event — it was wonderful to see so many services and people coming together to support health and wellbeing in the community.
