    UK Government advisor backs vaping to achieve smoke-free 2030

    A top advisor to the UK Government has said that without drastic action – including the promotion of vaping as a less harmful alternative to smoking – the country will miss its smoke-free 2030 target by 7 years.

    Dr Javed Khan OBE – a senior NHS leader and former CEO of the Barnardos children’s charity – was asked to review Britain’s progress towards its target of a smoking prevalence of less than 5% by 2030.

    Quote from Dr Javed Khan OBE

    Khan’s report to the Department of Health makes for critical recommendations:

    • Increase investment - around £125 million in smoke-free 2030 policies should fund accessible stop smoking support; while Khan also recommends implementing a tobacco industry levy in order to raise the money.
    • Increase the age of sale

    US RAPPER Doja Cat put vaping firmly in the spotlight at the 64th Grammy Awards in Las Vegas this month as she boldly vaped on the red carpet before receiving an award for her contribution to music.

    The star - who was nominated for a staggering eight Grammys at this year's event and took home the Best Pop Duo Performance award - turned heads for accessorizing her designer Versace gown with a vape pen as she appeared at the star-studded event.

    But despite it being cited as a bold move, Doja isn't the first musician to appear in public vaping, with many fellow singers attributing it to helping them make a switch away from smoking.

  • Glastonbury Disposable Vape Ban
    Glastonbury Disposable Vape Ban

    Glastonbury, the UK's most renowned summer festival, has made a significant decision regarding disposable vapes. With a staggering capacity of 200,000 attendees, the festival has decided to ban the use of disposable vapes due to concerns over their environmental impact. This move has ignited a broader conversation about the recycling and disposal of disposable vapes in the UK. 

    Neil McLaren, CMO at vaping.com, acknowledges the importance of addressing this issue and applauds Glastonbury for taking a stand.

    Australia Vape Ban while UK Offers Smokers Free Vape Kits

    While Australia’s vape ban on all recreational vaping in a huge crackdown on illegal sales, the UK government’s support for e-cigarettes remains firm and is one of the key measures to help make Britain "smoke-free" by 2030. 

    In stark contrast to the vaping Australia ban Down Under - where the government has announced e-cigarettes will be available on prescription only - Britain has ramped up its support of vaping in recent months and is handing out a million free vape kits to smokers in England.

    Many health experts and MPs in the UK agree that while teenage vaping must be addressed urgently, a vape ban could lead to a huge black market in unregulated vapes. The government also supports Public Health England’s (now UK Health Security Agency) report that regulated vapes are likely "95 percent safer" compared to cigarette smoking.

    WHILE vaping has made huge strides in helping millions of smokers move away from cigarettes, the rise in vaping is bringing a new green threat to the health of the planet.

    Cigarette butts have long been the most littered item on Earth, with 4.5 trillion discarded every year polluting the world’s streets, beaches, and waterways - but with e-cigarettes exploding in popularity, experts say vaping might not be too far behind.

    Since vapes contain plastic, nicotine salts, heavy metals, and batteries which unless disposed of properly won’t biodegrade and could find their way into waterways, and soil, endangering wildlife, it’s time to take action.

    To show the scale of the problem - and confusion - amongst vapers - 51% of young people have admitted to throwing away disposable e-cigarettes and pods in the rubbish, 17 % in recycling bins, not designated for vape use, and

    Don't Tax My Vape!

    The Financial Times has reported today that the European Union, which faces significant economic problems, plans to triple vaping tax in the near future. 

    This measure, to increased levies- especially on the higher nicotine strengths, potentially doubling their current cost and adding up to 3€ to the retail price, will hit the most addicted smokers turned vapers the hardest - pushing many back to smoking.

    In response, vaping.com is launching a campaign to make sure the UK Government doesn’t tax vaping in the same way as cigarettes, and instead, looks to reduce vape VAT to 5% - in line with other nicotine replacement therapies such as gum and patches.

    With the British Government also facing an apparent £40 billion black hole in its finances, it’s not hard to imagine that the Chancellor, Jeremy Hunt, could be looking to similarly hike taxes on vaping.

    The new £200,000 initiative is part of a country-wide programme to support inmates giving up tobacco. Vapes will be given to all prisoners free of charge at the start of November, to give them time to make the switch before the new rules come into force.

    Plans to ban tobacco in prison were announced last year amid growing concern about the health risks of passive smoking.

    At present, 80 per cent of the prison population are still smoking cigarettes in Scotland and it is hoped the vaping kits will prevent unrest and even riots which has occurred
