If you can take a moment please sign this petition. Drug Science are increasing the base cost of 30gm by 40%, meaning instead of £150 it will be £210, plus prescription charges and 3 monthly reviews

Medical cannabis has been life changing for me and enabled me to come off medication that was seriously affecting my quality of life. I am now left with the prospect of becoming housebound again because I am on benefits and cannot afford an additional 40% per month on top of what I am currently crippling myself to pay
This price increase is going to affect those that are the most vulnerable - disabled people who are unable to work and live on benefits. I have friends who have been able to come off morphine, antidepressants and epilepsy medication, to name a few, thanks to this project
They are leaving us with 3 options: bankrupt ourselves to pay, start taking medication with severe side effects again or to go back to self medicating with black market substances that are unregulated and illegal
This is a shameful act that I am unable to explain, other than "corporate greed". We are already paying more in the UK than other countries for the same product
If the price is increasing by 40% will this mean we won't have the same continuous stock issues that have plagued us for the last 6 months and that the product paid for will not be mouldy and causing already sick people more problems
