Medical cannabis deadlock turns parents to crime

Hannah Deacon's son Alfie Dingley was the first person to receive an NHS prescription for medical cannabis. Sadly other children with severe epilepsy have not been so lucky.

Hannah has written to Boris Johnson urging him to "stop the suffering of children" whose desperate families are left either raising money for expensive private prescriptions, or having to buy cannabis on the black market.
