The NHS has established a pioneering stop-vaping clinic for teenagers at Alder Hey children's hospital in Liverpool, targeting 11- to 15-year-olds. This initiative addresses the significant rise in vaping among young people, with 18% of 11- to 18-year-olds reported to have vaped in the past year. Although the trend appears to be stabilizing, awareness of long-term harm remains uncertain. The clinic will not only assist nicotine-dependent youths but also collect data to enhance understanding and support around teenage vaping cessation efforts, marking a notable public health intervention in England.
Vaping among young people has risen dramatically in recent years, prompting the NHS to launch a clinic to support teenagers in quitting.
With the alarming rise in the number of children and young people turning to vaping, our clinic aims to provide crucial support for individuals affected by vaping.
