Closed petition Ban the sale of energy drinks to under 16s

Closed on

There is currently no law regarding the sale of energy drinks to children. This needs to be changed as soon as possible, so that energy drinks cannot be sold to under 16s.

Energy drinks are high in caffeine and often other chemicals that children should not be ingesting in large amounts. Consuming these drinks can have an adverse impact on children's physical and mental health. There needs to be an immediate ban on the sale of energy drinks to under 16s.
