Findings from the School Health Research Network 2019 Student Health and Wellbeing survey state that 3% of 11-16 year olds in Wales reported at least weekly use of e-cigarettes. This can be broken down further by age group, sex, local health board area and family affluence. More information can be found here: Youth_smoking_and_vaping_in_Wales-2020.pdf (shrn.org.uk)
