Tackling Youth Vaping: Challenges and Solutions
Britain is facing a significant challenge with persistently high youth vaping rates, which have doubled since 2021.
Despite new regulations, such as the proposed Tobacco and Vapes Bill and a ban on disposable vapes, young people continue to access vaping products.
Restricting products on shop shelves is no longer effective, as they are easily accessible through social networks, informal markets, and digital channels.
According to Action on Smoking and Health (ASH) data, 20% of 11-17 year olds have tried vaping, with 7% currently vaping and 3% vaping daily.
These figures are deeply concerning and indicate a lack of progress in reducing use among children.
The data highlights the need for new and effective solutions to tackle youth vaping.
