Good Evening r/ukmedicalcannabis
With Christmas nearly upon us, we wanted to wish everyone a merry Christmas and share some upcoming events taking place.
It’s been a year of slow but steady progress for medical cannabis in the UK.
More people are accessing treatment, more clinics are opening their doors, and public awareness continues to improve. While there’s still a long way to go, the growth we’ve seen is amazing, and communities like r/ukmedicalcannabis play an important part in that progress.
Important Reminder
A quick reminder, please check your clinic or pharmacy’s last ordering and posting dates for the Christmas and New Year period, and get your repeat prescriptions requested as soon as possible.
Royal Mail / DPD and others are understandably slower and delays are more common in December, so getting ahead of it reduces the risk of any issues (We all know how things can be at the best of times!)
If you’re unsure, most clinics have now sent emails to patients regarding last order dates so please have a look for this, alternatively call or email your clinic.
