The Never-Ending Carousel of Cannabis Nonsense

Becoming a Medicinal Cannabis Patient in the UK

Sian Phillips Season 1 Episode 12

 Getting a medicinal cannabis prescription in the UK sounds simple — until you actually try. In this episode of The Never-Ending Carousel of Cannabis Nonsense, Sian takes a light-hearted but sharply insightful ride through the baffling, bureaucratic, and bizarre world of becoming a legal cannabis patient. 

From the official rules to the real-world hurdles, and private clinic costs, we’re unpacking the nonsense one carousel horse at a time.
