Please use this link https://endourpain.org/find-my-mp/  to urge your MP to take part in a vital debate this Monday (20th May). The debate will be addressing the ongoing crisis of access to medical cannabis on the NHS. The campaign needs a strong showing of MPs to keep the pressure up on the Government and the NHS. 

Despite access to medical cannabis being legalised last year following the high profile campaigns of Alfie Dingley and others we are not aware of a single new NHS prescription being written for any patient in the UK. 

Patients, many of them children suffering from severe epilepsy, are left suffering. Some children are having up-to 300 seizures a day. Their families are totally distraught. Many of the families are actually having to fundraise to take costly and stressful journeys abroad to access a medicine that is now legal here. 

So we’d be immensely grateful if you would use this link - https://endourpain.org/find-my-mp/ and urge your own MP be there. For some of these children resolving this situation is actually a matter of life or death.

Thank you.
