Illegal vapes

There has been a recent rise in reports across the UK of school children using vaping products. The law is clear no nicotine vapour product should be sold to anyone under the age of 18. The Trading Standards Service would like to further understand the presence of these products in Wiltshire, and if they have been identified within your school.

Information can be sent to tradingstandards@wiltshire.gov.uk
