Vaping
Vapes and e-cigarettes can be a great help for those trying to quit smoking. Evidence now shows that e-cigarettes, along with nicotine replacement therapy (NRT), and behaviour change support, is the most effective way to quit smoking.
The CYC Health Trainers offer free, confidential one-to-one support and guidance, face-to-face or remotely, to help 12+ year olds stop smoking or vaping. This includes up to 10 weeks (12 weeks for pregnant mothers), free NRT or e-cigarettes.
If you don't smoke, then don't vape!
If you would like support to help quit vaping, then you can contact the CYC Health Trainers.
E-cigarettes cannot be sold to those under 18, as the sale of e-cigarettes is regulated in the same way as the sale of conventional cigarettes.
Further information on vaping and e-cigarettes
The NHS website has information on using e-cigarettes to quit smoking, and the CYC Health Trainers can help you quit smoking or vaping too.
In addition, the National Centre for Smoking Cessation and Training (NCSCT) have a range of information on their website that you may find useful.
