Clive Lewis MP My son Alfie has an NHS prescription for medical cannabis which he's had since 2018. The law was changed for children like him and yet not one has benefited from an NHS prescription since then. The policy has failed and it needs to be put right. Happy to discuss how you can help.
Still recruiting research participants for Medical Cannabis Project UK - given current barriers to accessing prescriptions we would like to hear from people obtaining medical cannabis in other ways (and their carers) ljmu.ac.uk/research/resea…

On my way to @essd_research conference #ESSD2024 to hear about the latest European drugs research (and to present our Medical Cannabis Project UK work too). The programme looks excellent, looking forward to the next few days 😊
