The Irish Cancer Society is looking for youth groups to be involved in a short film competition as part of their youth smoking prevention and education programme, X-HALE. They want to support youth in becoming the first tobacco free generation.

The X-HALE short film competition grant gives young people the opportunity to create a youth-led film encouraging other young people to be smoke free.
