Is your child or a young person that you are working with vaping?
Vaping is not recommended for use by children and young people, or anyone who has never smoked, as vaping is not without harm. In the short term, people may suffer from headaches, sore throats, dizziness, and coughs. Developing brains should not be exposed to nicotine, which poses a risk of addiction and dependence and potentially a gateway towards tobacco use.
