ABOUT US
The Ganja Club is a UK medical cannabis publication
We publish patient education, clinic comparisons, strain guides, and news — because most UK patients still discover cannabis is legal through a stranger online, not their doctor.
What we do
Medical cannabis has been legal in the UK since November 2018, but awareness is low, information is fragmented, and the pathway from "curious" to "consultation booked" is confusing. We exist to close that gap.
Our site combines three things most UK cannabis resources do not:
- Editorial journalism — cited, fact-checked articles written for patients, not clinicians
- Practical tools — an eligibility checker, clinic finder, and strain explorer that answer the questions patients actually have
- Transparent funding — we earn through affiliate partnerships with clinics and product brands, always disclosed, never hidden
Editorial policy
Our articles are written and reviewed by the editorial team. We cite primary sources — legislation, clinical guidance, peer-reviewed research — wherever possible. When we link to a clinic or product, the link is either editorial (we are citing a source) or commercial (we may earn a referral fee). Commercial links are always clearly marked.
No brand pays for placement. Recommendations in our guides and comparisons are based on published data (fees, Trustpilot ratings, service models) and patient feedback. A clinic appearing first does not mean they paid to be there.
Affiliate partnerships never influence what we cover, how we rank, or what we recommend. If we publish sponsored content, it will be explicitly labelled as such.
Medical disclaimer
The Ganja Club does not provide medical advice.
All content on this site is for informational and educational purposes only. It is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always seek the advice of a qualified healthcare provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition.
Eligibility for medical cannabis in the UK is always an individual clinical decision made by a GMC-registered specialist after reviewing your full medical history. Our eligibility checker describes how the system works in general terms — it does not assess you or guarantee any outcome.
If you are experiencing a mental health crisis or thoughts of self-harm, contact your GP, NHS 111, or the Samaritans on116 123.
Affiliate disclosure
The Ganja Club participates in affiliate programmes, including the Awin network. When you click a link to a clinic or product and make a booking or purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.
Our affiliate partners include UK cannabis clinics, vaporiser brands, and wellness companies. Every affiliate link is marked with a disclosure statement on the page where it appears. You can read our full partner list and commissioning model on thesponsorship and commercial-content policy.

Patient stories
We publish anonymised experiences from UK medical cannabis patients. These are real people who have navigated the system — their words, their experiences.
"I had tried three different medications for my chronic pain over five years. My GP never mentioned cannabis was an option. I found out through a friend, booked a consultation, and was prescribed within two weeks. The biggest barrier was simply not knowing."
— Chronic pain patient, Manchester
"The eligibility checker on this site was the thing that made me book. I had been reading about medical cannabis for months but kept putting it off because I was not sure I would qualify. Four questions later I had my answer."
— Anxiety patient, London
"I was spending £200 a month on a private prescription and the clinic finder showed me two clinics I had never heard of that were half the price. That one page saved me over £1,000 this year."
— Chronic pain patient, Birmingham
