You and Me, NI Vape-Free is a new educational programme developed by Northern Ireland Chest Heart and Stroke (NICHS) in partnership with Stanford University, designed to help tackle the rising issue of youth vaping in Northern Ireland.

With support from local teachers and pupils, the programme provides age-appropriate lesson plans and resources for primary and post-primary schools, as well as youth settings.

Every lesson provides activities, online quiz games, and worksheets in addition to presentations, resources, and other materials aimed at addressing key factors associated with youth e-cigarette use. It equips educators with everything they need to address key issues around e-cigarette use, including peer pressure, marketing influence, stress, and mental health.

Endorsed by CCEA and forming part of the new Prevention Curriculum, You and Me, NI Vape-Free gives schools the tools to educate and empower young people to make informed, healthier choices.
