Due to the increasing severity of the COVID-19 pandemic, we are taking increasing precautionary measures to protect our customers and staff:

Here at the London Vape Company, we pay very close attention to what is happening around the globe in terms of e-cigarettes, and it has become impossible for us to not address the first vape-related death in the United States of America.

The leading cause of preventable deaths will soon be something of the past. In 2016, there were 77,900 deaths in the UK attributable to smoking cigarettes, according to a report by the NHS. However, the outlook is finally brighter and the world is changing. Smokers are quitting with the aid of e-cigarettes.

Recently, there has been a surge in the number of people asking what CBD is and how it can help them. This isn't surprising, as this new industry is growing in popularity massively thanks to a balloon in high quality product types and more available public information.

But that doesn't always leave us our queries answered, such as if CDB is psychoactive? Or what it can help with? How about how much THC is in CBD?

We used to have similar questions, but with lots of experience and research we can provide a definite answer once and for all.

You've heard the debate, you've seen the years of conflicted e-cigarette media reports. And you've almost certainly talked with friends about the implications of vaping. But the facts are clear.

In a recent publication, Public Health England (PHE) has taken a close look into the industry, and sought to ensure that the public is not mislead by these often unfounded concerns.

If you were to walk into any e-cigarette store in the UK and ask the question ‘Is vaping safer than smoking’, every single one would tell you the same thing. Yes.

They couldn’t have his prize.

He knew they wanted it, that they had coveted it since he pulled it from the ice. The expedition be dammed, it called to him, and him only. A sweet, otherworldly siren song full of promises and dark temptations beckoned him even now. And he answered.

Continuing their overwhelming support for vaping as a means to combat UK cancer rates, Cancer Research UK has provided deeper insight into their stance on E-cigarettes.

The results are in, and you already know the answer. Yes, E-cigarettes are safer than smoking!

Quitting smoking sucks. We all know it, we've all experienced it and no matter who you are, it just sucks.

But with support from Stoptober and The Vape Co, you can make it!

At the London Vape Co, we like to follow our customers progress, to ensure they find quitting as easy and pain free as possible.

Our Quitters series lets you tell us about your journey, from the highs, to the lows, and everything in between.

This week, we were lucky enough to hear Peter's story, which is one which many smokers can relate to!

We need your help.

Vaping is an industry that has become more and more invisible to the public, thanks to increasing pressure from a host of outlets, restricting our ability to communicate with our customers.

It has recently been announced that both Instagram and Facebook will be hiding vaping related posts, and while this may not sound like much, it will have a significant impact on our business.

We are thrilled to announce that we have partnered with Amazon!

You will now be able to take full advantage of Amazon's Locker service within our Camden Branch.

Cigarettes and lungs don’t exactly have the healthiest of relationships, and the same applies to the Tobacco industry and the British Lung Foundation.

When it comes to vaping, that relationship gets…complicated. Over the years both sides have been butting heads regarding legislation, research and much, much more.

But things are changing.

‘Do you still have the dreams?’

Dr Seldvig’s question fell on deaf ears, as his young patient sat quietly across from him, eyes fixated on the hard-wood floor. The doctor let the question hang momentarily, like the choking dust covering every section of the room, but was yet met with silence. He decided to take a different path.

‘What about the words, William?’ Seldvig pressed, ‘Do you still hear them?’

In 2017, the vaping industry faced its biggest challenge; The Tobacco Products Directive.

Restrictions to trade, packaging and products on the market proved to be a point of contention between vapers and the government, but UK vapers were quick to adjust to the new rules.

However, despite widespread compliance and the promise that no further changes would come into effect, it seems that TPD isn't done with us just yet.

In the last few years, vaping has gone from an underground, often overlooked activity, to the biggest competitor to the tobacco industry. Around the world, millions of people are trading smoking for vaping, and vaping is growing in strength each day.

The last few years have been eventful for vaping, with overwhelmingly positive clinical studies, research data and new trading standards that make vaping safer for everyone.

‘Dark thoughts breed dark deeds’

Elizabeth’s mothers words echoed in her mind, still powerful enough to cause a sting of fear, even after all these years. It was hardly a comfort on this dark night,

The dimly lit streets of London were full of potent terrors, but today she witnessed something she shouldn’t have. Something evil. Something that made her often tense walk home seem as dread-filled as a home cooked meal.

She would leave England tonight. She would start fresh and be free of the horrors that seemed to almost suffocate her every waking moment of lucidity. She would be free.

Enthralled by her thoughts, she hardly noticed that her door was already unlocked, nor the musty smell coming from the pitch black hallway that somehow seemed so alien this eve.

But she soon woke from her daze, when a whispering voice emanated from the hunched figure shrouded by the night, standing on her stairwell.

Crippled by terror, wide eyed and mouth agape in horror, she hears the dark words and knows true fear for the last time. She finally realises, in this terrible moment, what her mother meant.

‘ITS TIME TO MEET THE STAFF.’
