Chesterfield Town Centre FEBRUARY 3 Stoke-onTrent FEBRUARY 8

On a bright, sunny morning, Project Vapouround rolled into Chesterfield for a fun-filled day of vaping advocacy.

There wasn’t a dull moment during our short time spent at this stop, thanks to the crowd of inquisitive people drawn towards the bus.

A selection of visitors put their tastebuds to the test in our latest game, created in collaboration with Geekbar, ‘Guess The Flavour’.

Those who took part were in with a chance to win exclusive Geekbar X PSG merchandise along with a Geekbar disposable vape of their choice.

During our visit, we encountered a number of people whose opinion on vaping had been skewed by misinformation.

More recently, it seems there is an ever-growing library of misleading factoids or false warnings linked to vaping.

One of the many reasons why Project Vapouround exists is to provide smokers with balanced information on vaping, like the fact that it is at least 95 percent less harmful than cigarettes.

The winter weather was not kind on the Project Vapouround team as we made our way to Stoke-on-Trent…but the biting cold was not going to stop us from helping smokers.

With plenty of busy shoppers filling the city centre, the team were thankful to meet so many people interested in learning more about the less harmful alternative.

That morning, we met one sceptical man who had smoked for the majority of his adult life and had never even tried a vaping device.

He was doubtful to start with, but after explaining the facts he left the bus with his first ever vape in hand.

Later that day, the same visitor returned to thank us and said that he hadn’t touched a cigarette all day.
