Celebrate Safely: ‘Don’t Drink and Drive’

This week, Belize launched a “Don’t Drink and Drive” campaign to promote road safety ahead of the Independence Day festivities on September 21. Led by the Ministry of Health and Wellness, the initiative started in the Cayo district with bumper sticker distribution.

In Stann Creek, local officials and police collaborated to spread the message, while in Punta Gorda, the National Drug Abuse Control Council teamed up with health services and police for awareness efforts.

Today, the National Drug Abuse Control Council, the Ministry of Health and Wellness, and the Belize District Office joined forces with the Central Health Region, and the Belize Police Department joined in, urging citizens to celebrate responsibly.

The Ministry encourages everyone to prioritise safety and to celebrate responsibly:

“Don’t Drink and Drive!”
