👹🌱♥️

Dante’s Inferno is a strain loved by many patients for its rich terpene profile.
Pairing creamy, earthy aromas with a naturally calming presence. Many patients gravitate toward this strain when they’re seeking support with unwinding, easing tension or enhancing overall comfort. While everyone responds differently, Dante’s Inferno highlights how carefully cultivated, terpene-rich genetics can play a meaningful role in personalised cannabis experiences. ✨

In the UK medical cannabis industry, integrity means walking the walk—not just talking the talk. At United Patients Alliance we’re standing by patients, holding companies to account and demanding transparency. Because patients deserve more than lip service ✊🌱

Patients are powerful ✊🌱

Not because they sit back and wait but because they speak up, join forces and drive change.

This article from our Managing Director Leila Simpson shows how patients from the historical Thalidomide cases to the Orkambi / Cannabidiol (medical c*nn*bis) sector turned their lived experience into policy-impact.

☝️ You know your body and your condition best
👥 Collectively, our stories are more powerful than one alone
🌱 When we organise, our voices become the roadmap for change

In the UK today the legal medical c*nn*bis industry still has major access issues (high cost, inconsistent supply, poor responsiveness). UPA calls on patients and allies to get involved, show up, share their story and push for an industry that serves patients rather than just profits. Because in the end: change doesn’t happen for patients – it happens because of patients.
