Hume Leader “Hume resists smoke-free outdoors” 21 Jan
Macedon Ranges Weekly "Hume reacts to smoking toll" 18 Jan
Can you spot the difference? If you read these two stories one would think that they are telling two completely different stories.
I think someone has gotten their wires crossed somewhere.
Anyway, outdoor smoking bans or no outdoor smoking bans, I am much more interested that the Hume City Council has already participated in last year’s Quitober Challenge where they sponsored their staff that smoke to quit during October and beyond. Now I got the good news that the City of Hume will also be participating in this year’s QuitMay Challenge. So it looks like the Hume Council is coming to grips with whatever issues that are in its municipality. In fact, so far the Hume City Council is the only council in Australia that has supported such a positive campaign for smokers to quit, which is a lot more than I can say about Quit Victoria or the Victorian government. Good on you Hume!
