About Hopwoods Pharmacy
Community pharmacy in Llanedeyrn, Cardiff, GPhC number 9011088, dispensing medical cannabis prescriptions for collection via a Curaleaf partnership.
Hopwoods Pharmacy is a community pharmacy at the Maelfa shopping centre in Llanedeyrn, Cardiff, and one of the few places in Wales that openly offers to dispense private prescriptions for medical cannabis. Welsh patients otherwise mostly rely on online clinics and postal pharmacies based in England, since there are few cannabis prescribers with a physical base in Wales.
The pharmacy's site gives its General Pharmaceutical Council premises number as 9011088 and names its superintendent pharmacist. Pharmacies in Wales are regulated by the GPhC, while private clinics there fall under Healthcare Inspectorate Wales.
Hopwoods describes a three-step route run with Curaleaf:
- Eligibility: talk to the pharmacy team or use the partner clinic's referral.
- Consultation: a private video assessment with a specialist clinician.
- Dispensing: if a prescription is issued, it is sent to Hopwoods and the patient collects it discreetly in Cardiff.
The pharmacy lists conditions such as chronic pain, arthritis, epilepsy and multiple sclerosis among those that clinics consider, and explains how prescribed products differ from shop-bought CBD. It does not publish consultation fees, medicine prices or opening hours on its cannabis page, and we found no public reviews that discuss its cannabis service.
