Trinity goes smoke-free

On 1 December, all College campuses will be smoke-free.

The decision comes in line with moves earlier this year by the University of Melbourne to go smoke-free.

‘Trinity College is committed to providing a safe and healthy environment for all staff, students, contractors and visitors,’ says Campbell Bairstow, Provost of Trinity College.

Effective 1 December, the College will enforce a smoke-free campuses policy to eliminate smoking on all College grounds.

In order to smooth the transition for smokers to the new policy, a designated smoking area will be identified for 12 months. See map for details

Trinity will continue to offer support services to students and staff interested in quitting smoking.

These include counseling services, information on ways to quit and incentives for active transport options.

For support with counseling services at Trinity, contact Emily Dawson, College Nurse. E: edawson@trinity.unimelb.edu.au
