00:00It requires a civil society to do their part. It requires the private sector to do its part
00:08and in essence to use some of those additional fees that they are charging us to do their part.

00:34is an example of what public health in Tobago needs to look like.
00:38Health cannot just happen in our health facilities.
00:43It can't just happen in our hospitals or in our health centres.
00:49And government absolutely cannot do it alone.

01:01For us, making a difference is not just a statement. It is our responsibility.
01:07Our commitment is also guided by our alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals,
01:13specifically SDG 3, good health and well-being,
01:18because we believe that access to good health and support is a right, not merely a privilege.
01:25The Relay for Life initiative expands to the shores of Tobago for the very first time

01:41We have also expanded our reach into secondary schools across the island,
01:46delivering critical education through our anti-smoking and anti-vaping campaigns,
01:52empowering our young people with knowledge to make healthier choices.
01:55Today, however, marks something more. Very exciting.
01:59Tobago moves. Signals the beginning of a new and exciting chapter.
