'Not Around Us' is a joint effort by the council along with Healthy Ireland.
Westmeath County Council is pitching for smoke-free areas.
The initiative is about promoting an environment where it's easier for those who smoke/vape to quit and to help de-normalise smoking for the next generation.
'Not Around Us' is a joint effort by the council along with Healthy Ireland, Sláintecare Healthy Communities and backed by Comhairle na nÓg.
Brigid Geoghen is the Sláintecaire Healthy Communities Development Officer, she says it's an ask, not an order:
