Great Congrates !

Dear all,

I'm delighted to report that last Thursday I was awarded the Roll of Honour award for my advocacy role in vaping over the last decade. The award was presented to me at the Global Forum on Nicotine, held in Warsaw, Poland.

The award was given for my role in founding ECF (and in helping form the first vaping advocacy groups); for co-founding the E-Cigarette Summit in London, and for the various things I've done behind-the-scenes over the years, including participating in UK govt's tobacco-control round-table.

This award was newly added this year. INNCO usually give out two awards - one to a professional, typically academic, and one for a consumer advocate.

This new award is more "honorary". It's awarded to someone who has contributed in some other way, and not specifically over the previous year. It is particularly meaningful to me since INNCO represents the wider body of nicotine consumer organisations globally.

In my acceptance speech I made special note that in awarding me this, they were also awarding the membership of ECF - a membership which is profoundly responsible for much of the innovation in vaping both in product terms and in the formation of the global vaping community. Thousands of people over many years have contributed their knowledge and driven forward one of the most important technologies of our times.

So, thanks to you all and long may it continue - we still have great battles ahead of us and many minds to change.....

Oliver

Congratulations! Every time someone has asked a question about vaping I have referred them to this site. I have heard so may horror stories from folks who gave up on vaping after spending a small fortune and getting frustrated because they had no guidance. When I started out I would have been completely lost without the wonderful community that you have helped create here at ECF. My profound thanks to you and to all folks here. You deserve it.

Congratulations, Oliver
I've only just joined the vaping set and to read that you've been involved in establishing this forum among other things, for the past decade bolsters my courage to take the journey from being an ostracised cigarette smoker to becoming a member of a group that puts out positive vibes. The perceived healthier lifestyle can only be a bonus.
