The rules

Key rules in the United Kingdom

Plain-language summary. The regulator is Care Quality Commission.

  • Possession (no prescription)

    Illegal. Cannabis is Class B, with a maximum of five years' imprisonment and/or an unlimited fine; for possession, police may instead give a warning or a penalty notice of up to £90 on the spot.

  • Prescribed cannabis

    Legal when prescribed by a doctor on the GMC Specialist Register and dispensed by a registered pharmacy.

  • Home grow

    Illegal. Growing counts as production of a Class B drug, with a maximum of 14 years in prison; a prescription does not permit cultivation.

  • Public use

    Using non-prescribed cannabis anywhere is illegal, and prescribed cannabis-based products must not be smoked.

  • Driving

    Driving while impaired is illegal everywhere in the UK. England, Scotland and Wales also have drug limits (THC: 2 µg per litre of blood in England and Wales); the limit offense does not apply to drugs taken as prescribed if you are fit to drive. Minimum penalty: a one-year ban.

  • CBD products

    Allowed as food only if linked to an application on the FSA public list (England and Wales) and if controlled cannabinoids such as THC stay within 1 mg per container.

  • Daily CBD intake

    FSA advice: healthy adults should have no more than 10 mg of CBD a day from food; the THC safe upper limit is about 70 µg a day for an adult (July 2025).

  • Age

    No statutory minimum age for a specialist prescription (NHS use includes children with rare epilepsies), but the private clinics in our directory take adults only (18+, or 21+ at Integro). The FSA advises under-18s not to take CBD.

Summary, not legal advice — rules change; check local law. Last reviewed Sep 2026.

How it works

How cannabis is sold in Liverpool

The most recent change is scrutiny: in 2026 the debate over private cannabis clinics moved from cost to safety.

Shared address
22-24 Queens Drive, Wavertree
Prescriber base
A CQC-registered Liverpool doctor service
Zoto onboarding fee
£29
Auravia clinic fee
From £30, per the register

Two brands, one Wavertree address

Auravia Medical, from GROW Group, and Zoto, an online health platform, both list 22-24 Queens Drive and both prescribe through the same type of arrangement: a CQC-registered Liverpool doctor service. So the regulator's record sits with that service, not the brand. Search for the service name in the CQC directory.

What the changes mean for a patient here

Ask the clinic how it handles a psychiatric history, whether it contacts your GP, and who reviews changes in dose. Those are the areas the campaign and inspectors are pressing. See the UK clinic comparison and the England hub.
