Stafford: Staffordshire Smart Alert - under age vape sales in Stafford

Officers from Stafford Neighbourhood Policing Team have been working with Trading Standards and Stafford Borough Council in order to deal with the ongoing issues with sale of vaping products to minors. Vaping products, like other tobacco products, can only be sold to over 18s.

We have recently made an arrest in relation to this and seized a large quantity of vape pens believed not to conform to UK standards. Enquiries are still ongoing in to this and we would encourage anybody with concerns about the sale of any vape or tobacco products to underage children to contact Staffordshire Police on 101.

Police are hoping that tackling the sale of vapes to under 18s will also help reduce the associated antisocial behaviour in the vicinity of these locations and litter caused by packaging not being disposed of properly.
