In a bid to get people to stop smoking, up to one million people are set to be given free vapes.

The government initiative, dubbed 'swap to stop', will see smokers urged to give up their cigarettes.

As part of the 'world-first' scheme, around one in five of all smokers in England will receive a vape starter kit.

They will also be offered behavioural support to help them kick the habit and get healthier, while pregnant women will be offered up to £400 in a bid to get them to stop.
