EVENTS BH Vape, Bournemouth, May 28 Kathy and Keith Brickell from Bournemouth, have both switched to vaping after being life-long smokers. Kathy said: “Keith got a kiss from his GP after quitting – vaping genuinely saved both our lives. We have lots more energy now and love the fact we don’t stink of cigarettes. We came down here when we heard that the Vapouround Bus was coming. It’s a great social gathering. You wouldn’t ever get chance to socialise like this as smokers.” Peaches Atkinson from BH Vape said: “This was the second visit this year alone ... The whole atmosphere was amazing, having the bus here gave ever yone a chance to socialise and share their stories about vaping. Not only did it bring more people into our shop, it also helped raise awareness about vaping and gave new vapers plenty of knowledge on the basics of it too.” BURTON TOWN CENTRE, JUNE 1 ROTHERHAM TOWN CENTRE, JUNE 8 164 | VM18
