Call You and Yours: How are smoking and vaping affecting you, your family and your friends?

Available for over a year

On today’s Call You and Yours we want to hear about your experience of smoking and vaping. What it’s like if you’re trying to give up? And how did you get hooked in the first place? The Government wants to ban disposable vapes to help tackle the rise in the number of young people taking up vaping. It’s already said it’s going to ban cigarette sales to anyone born after 2008 to create “a smoke free generation”. Figures from the Action on Smoking and Health charity (Ash) suggest the number of 11 to 17-year-olds now vaping regularly or occasionally have almost doubled since 2020. Are you a parent or do you work with young people and are concerned by the impact of vaping or smoking? Or are you one of the many people who’ve used vapes to quit smoking? What’s your experience of using vapes? Has it helped you to stop smoking? We want to hear your stories – both good and bad. How are smoking and vaping affecting you, your family and your friends? Call us on 03700 100 444. Lines are open at 11 am on Tuesday January 30th. You can also email us now at [email protected] Don't forget to include a phone number so we can call you back.
