Vape Information Community Talk

Nov 10, 2025 | Active Richmond, Educate Richmond, Healthy Richmond, Heritage Richmond, RR&BA

Over the last few months, local residents voiced their concerns about vaping and its effects on our community with We are Richmond, as the fourth vape shop opened within one block of each other in Richmond.

We teamed up with Delta Community Support Trust to host Anna Stewart, co-founder of Vape-Free Kids NZ for a free talk about the current state of vaping in New Zealand.

A large focus of the talk was around children and teens, the most exposed and vulnerable population involved with vaping. Q&A was insightful and there was robust conversation following the talk..
