Waikato DHB is committed to making a tupeka kore (tobacco free) / smokefree New Zealand by 2025. We want to positively support patients, visitors and staff not to smoke on Waikato Hospital grounds and provide more alternatives to groups who smoke.

We are reenergising our efforts on creating smokefree campuses, in particular Waikato Hospital where smoking in smokefree zones still persists.

To do this we need your help to help us design and promote new forms of communication that will help provide a supportive smokefree environment.
