Smoking. Stock image PEOPLE in Bolton are being encouraged to help keep kids safe and smoke-free by reporting illegal tobacco sales, so enforcement teams can take more products off the street. New figures reveal while fewer adult smokers are now buying illegal tobacco (20 per cent in 2018 compared to 16 per cent in 2021), more 14–15-year-old smokers say they’ve been offered illegal tobacco (up from 10 per cent in 2018 to 25 per cent in 2021). These offers mainly come from strangers, potentially exposing them to other harms. The figures are from a new survey by Greater Manchester Health and Social Care Partnership which has tracked the size and scale of the illegal tobacco market following the introduction of its Making Smoking History strategy in 2018.
