Peace of mind price tags: Why all our medical cannabis flowers are £7.99 per gram for Releaf+ patients

Many Releaf patients say their medical cannabis treatment has been ‘transformative’ or ‘life-changing’ - but some have also told us at first, they were wary of the cost. Unknown pricing adds uncertainty - and unnecessary stress. But at Releaf, we believe consistency matters. That’s why all prescribed cannabis flowers are priced at £7.99 per gram for those on our subscription plan: Releaf+.
Read on to find out more about our consistent costs, how the Releaf+ subscription supports it, and why £7.99 per gram offers more than affordability - it offers confidence.

Here in the UK, we’re incredibly fortunate to live in a society that believes in universal access to healthcare for all. While it may not always be quick or offer unlimited options, the NHS is fundamental to our society, and, is a lifeline for millions.
But when the NHS can’t meet certain needs, private healthcare can help to bridge the gap.
More choice, shorter wait times, and experienced clinicians are all valuable aspects of what Releaf can offer, as well as convenient online appointments, medication delivery - and, if you’re reading this blog you’ll soon find out: consistent pricing too.
The vast majority of cannabis-based treatments are not routinely prescribed by the NHS, and only a handful of the estimated 30,000 medical cannabis patients in the UK have managed to secure an NHS reimbursement for these treatments. Therefore, confusion - and concern - around the cost of cannabis-based medicines, and the price of medical cannabis remains.
We’ve put together this blog to explain why we believe in consistent cannabis pricing, and why we’ve made conscious choices to level the playing field: so that those who need to access medical cannabis aren’t priced out of ongoing treatment.
Much like NHS England do by charging a standard prescription fee for any prescribed product (£9.90 per item), at Releaf, standardised pricing is integral to the Releaf+ subscription service - and all medical cannabis flowers are priced at £7.99 per gram for Releaf+ members.
Whether it's medical cannabis flower that’s THC-dominant, CBD-leaning or a balanced hybrid, the price remains the same - because we know every penny counts.
It doesn’t matter where in the world the cultivar comes from - be it Portugal, Canada, South Africa, or produced domestically here in the UK - our approach stands firm: transparent, consistent, and most importantly, patient-first.
We don’t think the flower's particular terpene profile or variable cannabinoid contents is a cost patients should have to bear, and when certain products are out of stock, some clinics may offer alternatives at a higher cost. At Releaf, we don’t believe patients should face unexpected charges due to stock availability, and so, while no two cannabis flowers are the same, for Releaf+ members, their prices are, regardless of strain, strength, or source.
Predictable pricing: No hidden costs, no headaches
We believe healthcare should be predictable. Many of our patients manage a myriad of complex and chronic health conditions - and with long-term health, comes long-term planning.
One in three adults admit they’re stressed about finances, and it’s no surprise that stress routinely exacerbates symptoms and can cause insomnia, anxiety, and low mood.
Standardised pricing helps lessen anxiety around fluctuating costs, gives individuals the ability to budget appropriately, and ultimately, contributes to peace of mind and financial security. After all, we’re in the business of helping - not hindering, and flat rate £7.99 cultivars aren’t the only thing you get with Releaf+.
What's included in Releaf+?
No inflated costs, just high standards: What do you get with Releaf+?
Releaf+ isn’t just about affordable flower. Our subscription model is inclusive of all medication delivery costs, repeat prescription fees, and unlimited doctor consultations.
Regardless of whether you’re being treated for a single condition and only require check-ins every 120 days (our standard follow-up process), or manage multiple conditions that require regular appointments - the price remains the same: £39.99 a month.
The Releaf+ subscription model empowers you to proactively engage with your care, without fear of mounting costs. For Releaf+ patients, there are no invoices for each appointment, fees for prescription dispensing and delivery, or costs for contacting our patient support team - so there’s no unexpected financial hurdles for unpredictable flare-ups or burning questions that need answers.
At Releaf, we’re here to establish a medical cannabis system that’s not only affordable and accessible, but sustainable too - and the Releaf+ subscription model has been designed to do exactly that.
Final thoughts from our Chief Financial Officer, Scott Stephen:
“At Releaf, financial transparency isn’t just a principle - it’s a promise to our patients.
We know that those living with chronic or complex conditions are already navigating enough uncertainty. That’s why we’ve built the Releaf+ model around one clear, consistent price: £7.99 per gram for any medical cannabis flower.
By removing hidden fees and cost fluctuations through R+, we provide patients with real value - predictable care and the confidence to focus on their health, not their bills.”
