Families need cannabis prescriptions support, say MPs and peers

Families need cannabis prescriptions support, say MPs and peers MPs and peers are calling for funding for families forced to buy medicinal cannabis for their children privately.

The treatment was made legal with a prescription in 2018 for those with an "exceptional clinical need".

But a cross-party letter from 100 politicians says only three NHS prescriptions have been given out since, forcing families to spend thousands on private treatments. BBC News
