Locals in Hastings will gather on Saturday to call on the central government to step up and prioritise childrens' health over Big Tobacco profits. A range of speakers will share their experiences and concerns over the youth vaping crisis in New Zealand, including local councillors, opposition party MPs, school principals, health educators and rangatahi. Its all organised by a group called Vape-Free Kids. Co-founder Marnie Wilton will be heading along, and she spoke with Nathan Rarere.
