- Medical cannabis was made legal on the NHS following NHS reforms last year
- Billy Caldwell and his mother returned from three months in ‘exile’ in Canada
- They left the UK as they couldn’t find a doctor to prescribe medicinal cannabis
- But yesterday they picked up cannabis from pharmacy after doctor prescribed it
A 13-year-old epileptic boy whose case led to the legalisation of medical cannabis in Britain has been given his first legal dose the country.
Billy Caldwell and his mother, Charlotte, from Castlederg, Co Tyrone, returned from three months in ‘exile’ in Canada yesterday.
They were forced to leave Britain in November because they were unable to find a doctor willing to prescribe medical cannabis – despite it now being legal.
The pair landed at Heathrow Airport and pick up the cannabis from a pharmacy in Surrey after being prescribed it by a doctor who was told by the Department of Health it was okay to write a prescription for the medicine.
Since taking the medicine, Billy who suffers from severe epilepsy, has been almost fit-free.

Question…..How many people that do not have an NHS prescription and even if they do finding it very hard to find a pharmacist who will stock it?
That’s why the next best option is to find the very best CBD oil sold legally that is proven to be organic, using the ‘whole plant’ and the CBD oil is CO2 extracted and has been tested by a third-party lab.
