As part of a competition held on the eighty, we asked young people to develop a smoke-free slogan. The winner, Kane, developed the following slogan:
Quit Smoking. Trust me, it's a breath of fresh air
The Quit SA website received a makeover in early May and is beginning to offer a number of exciting new features. The new site features a refreshed homepage and a number of key interactive features have been introduced.
Smokers visiting the site now have the opportunity to register on-line to receive a call from the Quitline. They can also order their free Quit Pack on-line and have it mailed directly to them.
So keep an eye on www.quitsa.org.au to see the new look and features take shape

Thank you sincerely for your friendship.
