SITREP – Patient Voices in the TGA Consultation

The TGA consultation on medicinal cannabis launched on 11 August and runs until 7 October 2025.

This is a pivotal moment: the policies decided here may shape patient access for years to come.

Last night, our community came together. We welcomed patients, advocates, researchers, healthcare professionals, and industry leaders all united by one goal: to make sure patients are at the centre of this conversation.

Here’s where we’re at:

We have a brand-neutral working group bringing together expertise from across research, advocacy, healthcare, and patient communities.

Our shared mission: 10,000 patient voices heard before 7 October.

It’s a big target! But this is the kind of ambition the moment demands.

And we need your help. Please.

The first step for every supporter is simple: send a letter.

Details and templates will be sent straight to your inbox when you sign up.

✨ This is your official invitation to join The Patients campaign. ✨

While patient-facing tools are being finalised, the priority right now is to alert patient networks about the consult and ThePatients.au

The more people who sign up, the stronger our collective voice will be when it counts.
A suite of tools to support patients will be released via email in the coming weeks.
