This Habit Shifts as UK Prepares for Nationwide Ban

The number of young people using disposable vapes in the UK has fallen significantly ahead of a planned nationwide ban, according to a new study by University College London. Among users aged 16 to 24, the percentage relying on single-use vapes dropped from 63% to 35% in the last year.

Set to take effect on June 1, the UK government’s ban targets environmental waste and rising youth vaping rates. However, researchers say many users are switching to refillable or rechargeable options rather than quitting altogether. This shift could limit the long-term impact of the ban on overall vaping habits.

Despite the decline in disposable vape use, vaping rates among all adults have held steady, while young adult usage remains higher than average. Experts say it’s a delicate balance—addressing youth addiction without undermining vaping’s role in helping people quit smoking. Public health advocates continue to call for stronger efforts to protect young people, while ensuring adults still have access to harm-reduction tools.
