Sam North is a content writer at Releaf, specialising in medical cannabis, digital health, and patient education within a UK regulatory framework. After a decade immersed in the cultivation side of the cannabis industry, Sam moved into digital in 2020. He worked across the recreational space with seed companies, CBD brands, and cannabis publications, before transitioning into the medical cannabis sector in early 2023 and joining Releaf in April of that year. Today, his work spans both content and SEO, with a focus on how the two support patient understanding and long-term organic growth. He writes and shapes educational content, research breakdowns, and patient-facing web copy, ensuring it is clear, clinically accurate, and aligned with UK compliance requirements. At Releaf, Sam’s focus is on making medical cannabis more understandable and accessible to patients, while maintaining a high standard of accuracy, compliance, and trust.

A guide to medical cannabis clinics in the UK

As of 12 August 2026, Releaf has the highest Trustpilot score, 4.8 from 9,598 reviews. Curaleaf received an overall CQC rating of ‘Good’, Alternaleaf advertises appointments for £29, while Mamedica's £200 Access Scheme is designed to potentially reduce long-term clinic costs. The right clinic for you will depend on what you value most from a clinic, but comparing the full treatment experience, rather than a single headline figure, is essential.

How Releaf became the first B Corp certified medical cannabis clinic

On the 7th July 2026, Releaf became the first medical cannabis clinic in the world to become B Corp certified. Verified by the non-profit B Lab, the certification sets in stone that Releaf is meeting the highest standard of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability, and has made a commitment to continue improving the way we serve not only our patients, but also our team, and the wider community.
