On our high streets, in our supermarkets and in the hands of children - but what are they, who's using them and should we worried?
About this Event

Please join us for our in-person Wales Tobacco or Health Network 2024 event where will explore the growing availability of new nicotine and tobacco products being marketed to a new generation of nicotine dependants.

This event will grow our knowledge and support our understanding of these novel products; finding out exactly what they are, where they are, who is using them and what impact they're having.

Important for anyone working with children and young people, from teachers and lecturers to youth workers and community leaders, we will hear the experiences of other European countries on how novel products infiltrated their markets and what has been done to control their use.

The timing of this conference is significant. With new legislation on the horizon raising the age of sale of tobacco and more robust regulation around vapes, will that be enough to stay ahead of the tobacco industry and stop them growing new markets, new products and a new generation of nicotine dependants.

This conference will help us remain vigilant in the protection of our communities and find solutions for Wales as we learn from the rest of the world.
