Petition Action

Make it illegal to buy or sell nitrous oxide (laughing gas)

Petition Details

There are far too many cases where young people have ended up in hospital, or even died, after taking nitrous oxide.

We believe this gas should be banned, so it cannot legally be bought or sold in the UK.

Additional Information

Many children see nitrous oxide as safe and legal, and far too many end up being admitted to hospital after inhaling nitrous oxide.

An outright ban would make it clear that this gas is dangerous, and should help tackle its use by children.
