Medicinal Cannabis Matters | Friday roundup 18th July 2025
Welcome to this week’s roundup—where we bring you the latest in medical cannabis news, from breakthrough studies to important developments here in Jersey.
New Study: Cannabis Helps Ease Anxiety & Depression
Great news for patients this week—Leafie reports on a new study showing that THC-dominant medicinal cannabis can lead to significant improvements in anxiety and depression. Within just three months, many patients saw their symptoms drop below clinical thresholds, adding to growing evidence that cannabis-based treatments can play a real role in mental health care.
Jersey’s Moment to Lead in Compassionate Cannabis Care
Charlotte Caldwell—whose son Billy helped change the UK’s cannabis laws—spoke to the Jersey Evening Post this week, encouraging the island to build a safe, ethical cannabis system that puts patients first.
Here’s what she highlighted:
- Keep medical and recreational use separate so that patients can continue to access the care they need.
- Support local growers to ensure a consistent, high-quality supply and reduce reliance on imports.
- Don’t overlook the clinical standards already in place—Jersey’s prescribing system is far from the “wild west” some claim.
