There has been a 50% rise in the last year in the proportion of children trying vaping, new figures suggest.
The data for UK shows a rise in experimental vaping among 11 to 17-year-olds, from 7.7% last year to 11.6% this year.
Children were asked if they had ever tried vaping once or twice, with the proportion roughly doubling in nine years, from 5.6% in 2014 to 11.6% this year.

Stephen asks – is it time to get tougher on vaping?
