  1. Year 6 Pupils, CEIP Santa Susanna Anti-Smoking Poster Campaign for Calella Hospital

  2. Poster Campaign Calella Hospital would like your help with their poster campaign against smoking. You need to design a poster that warns of the dangers of smoking. It can be written in Catalan or English or both languages. Your poster will need a target audience (e.g. teenagers, parents, hospital workers). It will also need a message.

  3. Target: • Pregnant women. • Message: • Don’t smoke while pregnant. • The smoke will affect your baby.

  4. Effect on Individuals Smoking affects your health. For example, nearly 90% of deaths from lung cancer are related to smoking. (Only about 35% of people smoke!) Cigarettes contain more than 4.000 different chemicals. About 250 of these are toxic. We know that at least 50 cause cancer.

  5. Passive Smoking Smoking doesn’t JUST affect the health of smokers. The poisons in cigarette smoke also affect other people. They breathe in the smoky air around them. In particular, this is a problem for children and people who work in places where smoking is permitted. Click here for video.

  6. One year more, or one year less? Cigarette smoke causes damage to the people around you. Why don’t you give up smoking?

  7. Effect on the Environment Smoking causes litter – cigarette butts and ash accumulate on the street. It looks ugly and can spread disease. It can harm wildlife. Cigarette smoke contributes to air pollution. Smoking is one of the causes of forest fires. It costs a lot of money to clean the streets of litter and combat forest fires.

  8. Effect on Society Smokers have more health problems than non-smokers. Health care for smokers costs the Government a lot of money. Smoking causes poverty because people who smoke have less money to spend on their families.

  9. Remember, Smokers are Addicts! Smoking is highly addictive. Very often, smokers don’t want to smoke. They know all the dangers. They may have tried to stop many times. Try to be polite and positive. For example, sometimes people continue to smoke because they think it’s too late to stop!

  10. Poster by Dutch artist Maurits Cornelius Escher (1898-1972)

  11. Vincent van Gogh, “Skull with Burning Cigarette”, 1886 (oil on canvas).
