1/ After almost five years reporting on the failings of medical cannabis policy in the UK, it felt like a significant milestone to get a commission from The Telegraph this week, especially for such an important story.

There's no more to add... everyone who knows, could do something about it. To ignore it means they're complicit in this suffering. Do something now before this becomes the scandal the public will all know about. Wes Streeting UK Prime Minister #Westandwithyou

Excellent speach from Jerome Mayhew. Real grasp of the issues and very clear on what patients & families need It’s not about “tea and sympathy” or “repeating the current guidelines” We need to know what will change Huge thank you for speaking up for children with #epilepsy

In his conversation with Hannah and Mike, Dr Singh shares what brought him to a career in medicine. “We have hit a wall, so we have to be creative. This doesn't just give people hope, it actually works.” Listen the full conversation here: 🎙️mapletreeconsultants.co.uk/post/dr-niraj-…

Got very lucky with the weather this morning, as the unstoppable Hannah Deacon and I were interviewed by ITV More focus on MedCan Family Foundation’ study into children being given illegal cannabis because they cannot access appropriate AEDs to control #seizures

Breaking the stigma around cannabinoid medicines normalises their use and boosts acceptance. We Dispense them alongside regular medications reducing negative misconceptions. Greater acceptance leads to more research, better healthcare, and improved patient outcomes.

thetimes.com/life-style/par… A poignant story of yet another family forced to the brink. When will the The Labour Party do the right thing. This scandal will only get worse if you continue to ignore it. Picking a fight with mothers who have disabled children never ends with us giving up.

Karin Smyth We've had multiple correspondence recently on this issue. Hannah Deacon and I would like to invite you to meet families who are directly impacted and accessing cannabis medicines illegally. To sit with them and hear their stories and work together to bring change.

My son Alfie was diagnosed with PCDH19 epilepsy at 5 years old. He is de novo which means his condition is not inherited from his parents but has been caused by an environmental factor. At the time of his diagnosis he was one of five boys in the world with similar diagnosis now
