Britain recorded a significant drop in the use of single-use e-cigarettes a year after the government banned single-use e-cigarettes, a survey cited by Sky News revealed today.

YouGov survey data showed that 13 percent of 11-17-year-olds use e-cigarettes primarily as single-use products, down from 42 percent before the ban was introduced. in 2025.

The rate is also lower than the peak of 69 percent recorded in 2023.

The survey also found declines in single-use e-cigarette use among adults. Just 8 percent of adults who use e-cigarettes said they mainly use disposables, up from 24 percent in 2025 and 31 percent in 2023.

The findings suggest the ban helped reduce the popularity and availability of disposable e-cigarettes, although millions more are said to still be “skipping” despite the measure, according to Sky News.
