BBC: Alfie Dingley: Mum criticises decision to deny cannabis treatment for son with severe epilepsy

The mother of a seriously ill six-year-old boy has condemned a Government decision to deny him a potentially life-changing cannabis treatment.

Alfie Dingley, from Warwickshire, has a rare and extreme form of epilepsy and can suffer up to 30 seizures a day.

His parents want to treat him with cannabis oil, which is illegal in the UK.
