Just wanted to post a dedicated thread here, because I'm somewhat shocked the community hasn't actually been jumping on this over the past few weeks, since it launched.


When using the new version of Grow Access Project, patients can get 10% off any medication when dispensed via Pharmacy Space:


From my understanding Pharmacy Space don't yet hold much stock, but will still give you 10% off RRP on any medication that's ordered in - which should cover all major distributors. We are doing our best to be able to publish a full stock list, but the pharmacy itself doesn't yet to the best of our understanding.

The Grow Access Project aims to reduce cost-related barriers to access to prescribed cannabis medicines for patients on low-income and veterans of UK armed forces. Patients will need to complete the online registration questionnaires and will be required to prove their universal credit status or their registration as a veteran of the UK armed forces when they register at the clinic.

Patients won’t have to provide any data, other than proof of their eligibility, to access the reduced prices.
  • Receiving income-related benefits (e.g. Universal Credit, ESA)
  • Receiving PIP (Personal Independence Payment)
  • Blue Light Card holders
  • Serving or veteran member of the UK Armed Forces
  • Students, aged 18 or over
The Grow Access Project is available to patients based in the UK mainland only.

Most importantly you do not need to be signed up to Auravia (partner clinic), or to fill in the questionnaire they require at sign-up.

Many Integro and Cannabis Clinic Cardiff patients are still onboarded to Grow Access Project, and in general your prescriber can self-certify you're eligible (based on the criteria above). All that's literally required is that a prescriber writes "G A P" in the top-left corner of the physical prescription sent to Pharmacy Space.

TL;DR - any patient can get 10% off any medication, if their prescription is sent to Pharmacy Space, and "G A P" is noted on the script.



I'm going to try this myself this month.

As I've been saying for a long-long time, when clinics are finished racing to the bottom of clinical pricing, all they have left to compete on is medication RRP. I feel 2026 will be the year that pharmacies selling under RRP becomes the norm – as it's long already been in Germany and Australia.
 
I was aware of the Grow Access scheme but this Pharmacy link up is new to me despite reading a lot of MC related papers, news etc daily.

As you say another step toward a more rational MC system in the UK. I'll see if Medicann support it, something I doubt!

Thanks for the heads up.
 
Just looked on Cannabis Clinic Cardiff's portal and this Pharmacy is already listed as available to send your request there💪

Might give it a go with the 40g's I've got left of my monthly amount as I'm signed up for Grow Access Project already and see if there are any restrictions but hopefully not 🤞

Basically Grow Access Project went dead during the Grow and IPS/ Integro divorce last year, Grow Access Project then relaunched via Auravia and Pharmacy Space - with an entirely different discount offer.

I'll see if Medicann support it, something I doubt!
Nope, Medicann last we heard were still non-compliantly blocking any and all patient requests to have their owned physical prescription sent to a pharmacy of their choice.

Honestly, if I can genuinely save 10% off on almost any medication, I have to try - because my pockets are about empty already 😅

Just to confirm I did indeed get the 10% Grow Access Project discount and they ordered in from elsewhere where they didn't have it and as the order totalled over £100 delivery is free by DPD (y)

Cheers mate and it was basically a trial to see what's what but now I know then there is savings to be made and plus it puts pressure on other pharmacies to do the same 😁

So anyone using Grow Access Project can request prescription be sent to Pharmacy Space, and if it's not in their formulary, then it's ordered in from elsewhere, and you still get 10% off?

That is exactly what happened with me when I tried them a week or so ago and they ordered in all three items I ordered and honoured the 10% off as a Grow Access Project patient 👌

You just have to make sure they put Grow Access Project on your prescription so to confirm you are a Grow Access Project patient(y)

Fantastic. This means no one is tied to a single pharmacy formulary. Great news, next script 😁

Just thinking and as long as your clinic will prescribe it then Pharmacy Space should be able to get it from who has stock of the product ,also so long as the request totals £100+ then postage is free🙌
