✅ Truth - Medical c*nn*bis is a regulated treatment option available in the UK through specialist doctors when other treatments have failed. Prescriptions are tailored to each patient with careful control over product quality, dosage and monitoring to ensure safe use.

Throwback to when interviewed and Kieron Reeves about using c*nn*bis medicinally 🌱

⏩ Fast forward to the present day and now patients can be prescribed c*nn*bis legally on private prescription, thanks to dedicated patients who have tirelessly campaigned for a better quality of life 🌿 We have come a long way since this interview but some patients are still being left behind.. UPA wants to make it our mission so that every patient has access to affordable medicine. Will you join us in the patient revolution?

🩺 Start with symptoms – Start with your condition, then find a strain to suit you.
🌱 Genetics – Indica, Sativa, or Hybrid? Choose the right plant genetics for your condition.
🌸 Terpenes – They do more than smell good! Choose the right terpenes for your symptoms.
🌞🌚Timing – Match your strain to your schedule. Day time boost or bed time relaxation?

Every day, patients in the UK are suffering — not because they’re doing something wrong, but because the system is broken.

UPA is one of few national organisations dedicated solely to patient-led cannabis advocacy. 🌱

We’ve already helped bring c*nn*bis into the national conversation. But now, it’s time to change the law — and the lives behind it.

FIGHTING FOR THE RIGHT TO HEAL - TOGETHER 🌱💪

📣 Patients are being criminalised for growing the medicine that gives them relief. United Patients Alliance (UPA) say: enough is enough!

Grow-Your-Own - Our boldest campaign yet!
🌱🫀At the heart of this crowdfunder is our most urgent and ambitious campaign: the right for patients to grow their own medicine. 💊 Despite medical c*nn*bis being legal in the UK since 2018, access remains a privilege, not a right. Costs are prohibitive, and many GPs still refuse to prescribe. As a result, thousands of patients are being pushed into illegality just to manage their symptoms.

Our Grow-Your-Own campaign is about changing that — from the ground up.

Head to the crowdfunder link to find out how you can help us grow a future where no one has to choose between healing and handcuffs. 🚔❌
