Medicinal Cannabis Matters | Friday Roundup – 6th June 2025
Brought to you by Medicann – Leading the Way in Patient-Centred Cannabis Care Across the Channel Islands
Welcome to this week’s edition of Medicinal Cannabis Matters, your trusted source for the latest developments in the world of medicinal cannabis.
At Medicann Clinics, we are committed to providing compassionate, personalised care to patients across the Channel Islands and beyond. Here’s what’s been happening this week—and how it may affect your journey with medical cannabis.
More Patients, More Possibilities: The Rise of Medical Cannabis Use
Globally and locally, more people than ever are choosing medical cannabis to help manage a range of chronic conditions—from pain and anxiety to neurological disorders. What was once a niche area of healthcare is rapidly becoming mainstream, thanks to increasing awareness, expanding clinical evidence, and greater patient success stories.
At Medicann, we see this shift every day. More patients are coming to us looking for alternatives where conventional treatments have failed. With options including oils, capsules/lozenges and vaporizers, cannabis-based medicine can be tailored to suit your lifestyle, needs and preferences.

Looking to the UK: Scotland’s Surge in Medical Cannabis Prescriptions
Looking to our neighbours on the mainland, Scotland is seeing a sharp rise in patients turning to medical cannabis, especially for chronic pain conditions like fibromyalgia, arthritis, and endometriosis. According to recent data, Scotland now accounts for 17% of the UK’s private medical cannabis prescriptions—a figure that reflects increasing demand amid long NHS wait times.
The same story is unfolding here in the Channel Islands. At Medicann, our clinics are welcoming a growing number of patients who are seeking pain relief, better sleep, and improved quality of life. With specialist clinicians, streamlined consultations, and ongoing support, we’re proud to be making that care accessible across Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man.

Cannabis and Policy: From Stigma to Standard Care
Recent headlines from the UK are calling for long-overdue reform in how medicinal cannabis is perceived and prescribed. Advocacy groups are pushing for better access, less stigma, and full integration into the healthcare system. At Medicann, we echo these calls. Our mission is to deliver cannabis-based care that’s grounded in science, compassion, and transparency.
For patients in the Channel Islands, Medicann has for a long time advocated fair patient access and responsible prescribing, and with our award-winning care, we are leading the way in helping to shape what modern cannabis care can look like—safe, ethical, and patient-focused.
