A teenager who lost her mother to lung cancer is fronting a new hard-hitting anti-smoking campaign.
Leaving Certificate student Margaret O’Brien will tell television viewers what life is like without her mother Jackie, who died 18 months ago.
Mother-of-two Pauline Bell, whose husband died from a heart attack, and throat cancer survivor Gerry Collins also star in the Health Service Executive’s campaign to get smokers to quit for the new year.
Their three-minute stories will be broadcast on New Year’s Day to highlight the fact that one in every two smokers will die of a tobacco-related disease.
