Medicinal cannabis

A health body says there's not enough evidence medicinal cannabis helps with epilepsy

The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) has said medicinal cannabis should not be prescribed because there is not enough evidence to prove it works. Hannah Deacon was one of those parents who led the campaign for its use and her son, Alfie Dingley, is one of only two children with an NHS prescription. She and a director of NICE, Paul Chrisp, speak to Today. (Image: Alfie Dingley, credit: PA)
