A Time for Progress
Over the course of Medicinal Cannabis Awareness Week, Canndr® and BRITISH CANNABIS™ have been connecting with medicinal cannabis pioneers, policy influencers and patient communities, to contribute to a shared effort for a seismic shift in the progress of patient rights and mainstream acceptance of their medicines.
Highlights of Medicinal Cannabis Awareness Week:
Wednesday 1st November – Market Challenges and Opportunities gathering, hosted by BRITISH CANNABIS™, from the offices of the leading legal firm in the cannabinoid space – Fieldfisher. Collaborating with the most forward thinking companies in the medicinal cannabis space.
Thursday 2nd November – attending the Cannabis Industry Council’s member conference, participating in workshops that aim to bring solutions to industry challenges.
Friday 3rd November – Events culminate at UK Patient Conference 2023, where Canndr® is a gold-level sponsor of the conference event built by respected research and policy reform organisation, Drug Science.
This conference, held in London, is a forum for patient communities to come together and get advice and network with key companies in the space that can support them.
As well as talking to the UK’s first generation of medicinal cannabis patients and finding out how the industry can come together to improve their journey there will be a series of panel talks, hosted by Drug Science, on a number of key topics. Canndr® founder, Tom Whettem, will be participating as a panellist in a talk on Protecting The Legal Rights of Patients.
Other panels set out to tackle subjects such as innovation in the CBPMs space, changing mainstream perception of cannabis medicines for the better and looking forward to the next 5 years of change as UK CBPM enters the second half of its first decade of legalisation.
At the patient conference, the first ever Canndr® patient cards will be handed out to patients with confirmed prescriptions. The patient card will continue to be available for free to all Canndr® members in the long term future, with verifiable proof of your CBPMs prescription and the ability to gain instant access to legal resources and support for the legitimacy of a prescription, via the build in QR code.
Tom Whettem, CEO and founder of Canndr®, celebrated the week and what Canndr® will set out to achieve: “The creation of Canndr was driven by a singular belief – a clear conviction that medicinal cannabis patients in the UK deserved an ally, they deserved transparency, they deserved better. This week, as we launch Canndr, I hope the community understand that this isn’t merely a novelty app. This technology will be a significant step towards transforming the medicinal cannabis landscape. We need to hear patients’ experiences with medicines, clinics and dispensaries; their passion, their voices. Bringing the full patient journey together with intelligent data on what is working for people, could help ignite the transformative change we want to see for everyone in the UK medicinal cannabis space”.
