Smoking is the leading cause of preventable death and illness in the UK. It contributes to heart disease,\u00a0<\/span>strokes, cancers, dementia, and lung disease. Liverpool has seen a decline in smoking rates over the past 23\u00a0<\/span>years. This is thanks to accessible stop smoking support services. These services offer free Nicotine <\/span>Replacement Therapy (NRT) and approved products. In the last 5 years, E-cigarettes have become a popular\u00a0<\/span>nicotine substitute. There is strong evidence supporting their efficacy in quitting.<\/span>\u200b<\/span><\/p>\n

Liverpool has introduced a ‘Vaping to Quit’ pilot. Targeting communities with high smoking prevalence. They\u00a0<\/span>aim to provide free E-cigarette starter kits. This is supported by the national ‘Swap to Stop’ program. We\u00a0<\/span>know vaping for smoking cessation is effective. However, there are concerns about young people using <\/span>vapes. Evidence suggests increased health risks associated with vaping in this demographic.<\/span>\u200b<\/span><\/p>\n

The number of young people trying vaping in Liverpool has risen, reaching 54% in 2023. Aggressive\u00a0<\/span>marketing by tobacco companies, offering enticing flavours, contributes to this trend. Liverpool City Council <\/span>calls for stringent measures. These include increased fines for retailers selling illicit vaping products. There is\u00a0<\/span>also a call for more regulation of vapes. Local actions include underage sales enforcement and educational\u00a0<\/span>initiatives in schools.<\/span>\u200b<\/span><\/p>\n

Regulations to reduce the risk caused by vaping products are being overlooked by some retailers. Higher tank\u00a0<\/span>capacities, puff limits, and nicotine strengths increase the risks. Joint operations by trading standards and\u00a0<\/span>police have seized thousands of illicit vapes.<\/span><\/p>\n

Our message is clear \u201cIf you smoke, vaping is much safer. If you don\u2019t smoke, don\u2019t vape.\u201d<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n
