“The BBC has been told of a rise in complaints to Trading Standards over illicit vapes and shops selling them to children – increasing from dozens each month last year to hundreds per month in 2022, with thousands of counterfeit and unregulated products being seized.
A recent survey by health charity ASH suggests nearly a third of 16 and 17-year-olds have tried vaping, and 14% are currently vapers. Among 11-17-year-olds, 7% are vaping – up from 4% in 2020.”
