Abstract:
The prevalence of vaping among children and young people (CYP) is on the rise. This is perhaps a result of perceiving vaping as 'harmless', especially after an extensive public acceptance through the UK Government's promotion of vaping in smoking cessation as well as lax regulations on advertisements.

This article highlights essential facts about vaping, signs of addiction and cessation support for CYP as part of health promotion.
