X-HALE 2019 Short Film Competition

The X-HALE 2019 Short Film Competition is an exciting opportunity for youth groups to spread the word about the impact of smoking by creating and promoting a youth-led short-film. Every year, the Irish Cancer Society support youth groups from all over Ireland in making a short film to encourage young people to be smoke free. If you’re part of a youth organisation, project, club, services or centre working with young people aged 10-24, we want you on board for X-HALE 2019! This year there are exciting new opportunities for participating young people to develop their skills and the lead the way towards Ireland's First Tobacco Free Generation with the support of their youth workers and the Irish Cancer Society.
