Good Evening !

Please join us on Saturday 20th December for a festive themed quiz, open to everyone and designed to be relaxed and inclusive, with the emphasis on taking part rather than competing.

If you’re not already familiar with @💨🍃 Smokey Mo 🍃💨, she’s an active and well known part of our Discord community and regularly shares videos focused on medical cannabis. If you’d like to check out her content and consider subscribing, you can find her YouTube channel below.

There will be a small selection of prizes available on the night, including a Buddy from BuddyHigh, a takeaway voucher of your choice, along with a few additional prizes. The quiz link and final instructions will be shared in
Discord shortly before the event begins.

If you’ve not met Buddy before, he’s an iconic cannabis plush designed with cannabis consumers in mind. Soft, and unique, Buddy makes an excellent companion for the cold winter months

Seven years ago today, the UK legalised medical cannabis, driven by the urgent need of patients and the tireless advocacy of families fighting for access to life-changing treatment.

The stories of children like Billy Caldwell and Alfie Dingley, whose severe epilepsy improved dramatically with cannabis-based medicines, moved the nation and helped change the law.

This shift granted specialist doctors the power to prescribe cannabis-based treatments for those with exceptional clinical need.

Since then, while the legal framework has been a major step forward, many challenges still remain.

NHS prescriptions remain rare and limited to a small set of conditions, leading most patients to seek help through private clinics. Stigma, misinformation, and low public awareness still create barriers, with far too many UK patients unaware that medical cannabis is a legal, viable treatment option.

At r/ukmedicalcannabis, we champion education, awareness, and advocacy - providing a vital platform where patients can share their stories, access trusted information, and find the community and support they need. We strive to break down stigma, bridge gaps in understanding, and push for greater access and recognition within healthcare.

We thank all the patients, advocates, and healthcare professionals whose voices and dedication continue to drive this movement forward. Here's to seven years of progress, and to empowering every patient with the knowledge, support, and care they deserve.

Happy 420 !

I hope you've all had a wonderful Easter/420 and the postie brought you all of the VAS impulse purchases you wanted. It's been a pleasure to have so many of you here contributing to our community and you have all helped to make this Discord a really nice place to be.

If you're interested in joining, a few of us will be listening to music or watching TV in https://discord.com/channels/916124095257665576/1363518529432981544 whilst chatting and vaping.

I'm also happy to announce our new RPG Club at #rpg-chat, and our @Games Master @Anam, who has prepared this introduction:

Fancy diving into a classic fantasy adventure with a twist of mystery and mayhem? I’ll be running a one-shot using Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition (2014). Whether you’re a seasoned adventurer or brand new to the game, all are welcome! (4/5 seats available)

🧙 What You’ll Need:

• A Discord account (we’ll be voice-chatting here)
• A working microphone (required)
• A webcam is a bonus, but not required
• Either a pen & paper character sheet or an account on D&D Beyond (free to sign up)
• We'll be using Owlbear Rodeo for the virtual tabletop (VTT) – no account needed, but making one gives a better experience

📜 The Adventure: You’ll be stepping into a classic module from the early days of D&D – expect strange ruins, weird happenings, and plenty of danger. (Player characters may die...)

⚔️ This will be a self-contained session with a mix of roleplay, exploration, and combat. All characters will start at level 2.

📅 Date & Time: Thursday 24th April at 7.30pm.

If you’re interested, drop a message in #rpg-chat or DM @Anam! Let me know your level of experience, any questions you have, and whether you’d prefer to roll your own character (4d6, drop 1, assign to whichever stat you want) or pick from some pregens. Just a note, character creation is deliberately confusing at the moment on D&D Beyond due to the 2024 rules having launched. We will be playing 2014 5e though

Also, for those who hadn't yet noticed, we've started a book club! Please head over to #book-club-chat to learn more and take part!

Merry 420 everyone!

***Good Morning All,

I hope everyone is healthy, happy and well medicated! As r/ukmedicalcannabis keeps growing, we're looking to expand the team to keep up with all the excitement, make some more and really boost the community spirit. To do so, we need your help!***

We’re looking to find volunteers for the following roles:

```UKMC Helper
—
Do you enjoy supporting others and making everyone feel at home? We’re looking for Helpers to provide general support throughout the community, ensuring that every member feels acknowledged and valued. You’ll be welcoming new members to the server and keeping a watchful eye on #help, ensuring that questions are answered.

Events Team
—
Are you skilled at organising and love bringing people together? The Events Team requires your enthusiasm to create engaging and accessible events like quizzes, game nights, voice chat sessions and meetups that help bring the community together.

Librarian
—
For those who have a knack for research and organisation, becoming a Librarian could be your perfect fit. You’ll help manage the strain library over at #flower-discussion, ensuring that accurate and useful information is always at the fingertips of the community.

Content Team
—
Do you have a flair for design or a passion for writing? Do you have experience with web or app development? Do you enjoy making other content like videos or podcasts? We’re looking for creatives of all types (but particularly designers!) to create content to educate and inform the community.

UKMC Team

This team is the backbone, consisting of individuals who are ready to use their diverse skills on current and future projects. Whether you’re a proactive thinker, a constant encourager, or have a unique talent you believe could benefit the community, your participation is crucial. It’s your enthusiasm and willingness to be involved that truly makes a difference. If you think you can help, but don’t want to dedicate yourself fully to any of the above roles, then this is the team where you can make a difference across a broad spectrum of areas.```
***If you’re interested in volunteering some of your time and joining the team, please drop us a note in #join-the-team and share a little about yourself, your interests, and how you’d like to contribute to the community. ***

We look forward to hearing from you!

Good evening everybody.
