More about the programme

This week’s Eye on Wales looks at the growing campaign to rehabilitate cannabis from a drug on the wrong side of the law to a medication sitting on our pharmacy shelves.

Presenter Kayley Thomas hears how a network of people have been secretly supplying herbal cannabis to sick people for years and talks to the man behind it who wants to reopen a private members club where people can use the cannabis they are given.

She meets a Multiple Sclerosis sufferer who uses the plant in its raw form for pain relief and she hears from an anti-cannabis campaigner who says current and historical evidenceΒ both here and in AmericaΒ that the drug causes harm is being ignored.
