A historic moment! UK Tobacco and Vapes Act becomes law

On 29 April 2026, the Tobacco and Vapes Act became law and it’s a huge step towards a smokefree future in the UK. This world-leading legislation has now made it illegal in the UK to sell tobacco products to anyone born on or after 1 January 2009. Securing this landmark moment to help protect the health of future generations is the culmination of years of campaigning by Cancer Research UK staff and ambassadors, our partner organisations, and backed every step of the way by our supporters. If combined with the right funding to ensure the millions of those who currently smoke and want to quit get the support they need, we could finally beat the biggest cause of cancer in the UK. #SmokefreeUK #SmokingCessation #Smoking #Tobacco
