Should children and young people use vapes?

Vapes usually contain nicotine, which can harm young, developing brains and lead to dependency. For children and young people, there’s no benefit to using vapes, and while they are less harmful than smoking, they still carry risks.  

If a young person is both vaping and smoking and wants help to quit, Help Me Quit services are here to provide expert support.

We can also support young vapers, however we are currently unable to provide them with Nicotine Replacement Therapy (NRT) such as patches or gum.
