The Cancer Society is pleased new vaping laws will finally put an end to the marketing of highly addictive products to children and non-smokers.

From November 11, it will be illegal to sell vapes to under 18’s and advertising and sponsorship of vaping products will be banned altogether. Vaping will also be banned in legislated smoke-free areas such as:

- indoor workplaces
- cafes and pubs
- schools and early childhood centres
- public transport.

We think that everyone, especially parents need to be aware that vapes are now R18 and can’t be used in schools.

Looking for something different to do this summer?

Head down to the Auckland Town Hall for an hour-long walking tour, held during December and January.

Trained guides will lead small groups across the original kauri floors and into the Great Hall where the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and the Who have all performed.

Gracing the Great Hall is the organ, which is one of the world's finest concert hall instruments.

The Auckland Town Hall Tours will give people an insight into the rich heritage of the Category 1 historic building, built in 1911 to house the city’s civic offices and mayoral chambers .

Tickets go on sale from November 10.
