In this webinar, we will explore how and why children and young people are vaping despite never smoking cigarettes, the unknown long-term health impacts of these products, the growing evidence that vapes are becoming a gateway to other addictions and/or riskier behaviours, and finally, the protection measures that Government should take to prevent further uptake and to protect children and young people from harm.

Our panellists will include:

• Tracy Scares, Senior Service Manager (Substance Misuse) at Catch22,
• Mike McKean, Vice President for Policy at the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health, and
• Sarah Parker, Research and Development Officer (Risk and Resilience Services) at Catch22.
