Cork mum Vera Twomey, who secured a licence for medicinal cannabis for her daughter Ava, will speak in the House of Commons this afternoon..
Vera became friends with Hannah Deacon, whose six-year-old son has severe epilepsy, when they both lived in Holland to receive medicinal cannabis for their children, as they lived on the same street.
Yesterday, Ms Deacon was told her son Alfie Dingley would be granted a licence for medical cannabis – becoming the second child with epilepsy in the UK to be granted such a licence.
