A study funded by Cancer Research UK and Behavioural Research UK has shown that oral nicotine pouch use in Great Britain has risen. Worryingly, this is largely driven by young people - especially males. This news highlights the importance of implementing strength restrictions as well as age of sale legislation for nicotine pouches as expected in the new Tobacco and Vapes Bill.
We have some great short films made with a dentist who is a specialist in their effect on oral health , plus training modules and presentations for young people – please contact our wonderful regional team to find out more. https://talkabouttrust.org/resources/schools/?_school_topic=vaping-and-other-nicotine-products&_type=video
