The vape industry is very much a community and there is plenty of guidance and support out there for novice vapers who are taking their first steps away from smoking.
There are a number of guides on the UKVIA website that should be able to help you on your journey and most specialist vape shop employees/owners are happy to answer questions where they can – in many cases, they are ex-smokers themselves.
The UK vaping sector is entering a defining year. With the Vape Product Duty approaching, new rules under the Tobacco and Vapes Act, and with further pressure coming down the track around flavours, packaging, displays, waste and advertising, the industry needs a fair hearing – and a clear plan.
The UKVIA Vaping Industry Forum 2026 will bring together industry leaders, policymakers, government agencies, regulators, enforcement bodies, public health voices and consumer representatives for a practical, solutions-focused day on the future of vaping.
The event will combine expert guidance on the regulatory road ahead with collaborative sessions on how responsible businesses can protect vaping’s role in harm reduction, tackle the illicit market, challenge misinformation, and ensure the voice of adult vapers is heard in future policymaking.
