Social services? Police? It’s a criminal offence to give under 18 a vape. I’m worried what it will do to my sons health

Educate your son to say no. Show him photographs of what can happen to his lungs. Then if dad buys them for him, he will say no thanks dad.

Is your son a smoker or is his dad forcing him to smoke?
I suppose this is different to reporting a merchant.

My DH’s XW does this - he reported her to SS. They gave “advice” and very little else. She still buys the kids and their friends vapes. Was a waste of time and just caused a lot of bad feeling for ultimately no purpose. I thoroughly agree with you that adults shouldn’t be buying children vapes, but there seems little consequence in reality for those that do unfortunately.

Maybe contact the police via their online form for advice? I’d be weary of just driving your son away though as it likely won’t make any difference unless dad is forcing him to vape
