Findings prompt a review and discussion of the suitability of food and drink promotion on government-owned transport and their associated assets.

I always learn so much from @Zockmelon - Kristy is an absolute social media and public health guru and I've learned so much from her over the years!
Now hearing from @Zockmelon - on social media as both a tool and a setting. Has been working in this space for a decade. Now hard to imagine/remember the era before SM
