it's one of the best methods for delivering what is needed quickly to where it is needed. it's a bit of a standard approach depending on the cancer.
most of us on the forum grow. the uk is really backward, the majority of folk either wind up growing for their own meds or connecting through a social network to find a grower.
just keep asking and banging on doors. there are a lot of members here from the uk who may be able to help.
it would help to get familiar with the different extraction methods. not every extraction method will work for what you are trying to make. some may lend themselves better to your needs.
first is CCO/RSO/QWET. they all refer to the same thing. you can read how it is made here : RSO rso is the number one approach for base meds in the community at present. the final product is reliant on the weed that you start with.
the next method is infusing oils directly using heat. there are a couple different methods but the easiest is the instant pot method. the volume you can make is larger, but the concentration will be lower. there are multiple oils you can use for the base, some may have properties you seek.
another popular method is BHO or butane honey oil extraction. we are not allowed to discuss BHO, as the butane used in the process can pose a danger. blah blah legal stuff, but it is quite a popular and easy method to make base extract. not hard to find a tutorial at all on it, and there are lots of commercially made extractors. use your google.
BHO is more concentrated than the instant pot method, and close to or more than RSO.
true honey oil uses ether, not butane, but requires actual lab conditions under vacuum to make properly. it requires professionals. true honey oil is the purest and most concentrated form. there is also cherry oil, which is slightly less concentrated, and made in the same method. actual honey or cherry oil is almost impossible to source now.
you can also infuse vegetable glycerin, i use the instant pot method though there are cold infusion methods. infusing vegetable glycerin is similar to an oil, but will result in slightly less concentrations than what can be achieved through an oil. it is useful for folk that take the tincture direct and don't like the flavour of the oils.
if you are interested this is the VG tutorial.
there is a lot of good information on the medical use of CCO here :

The journey begins.......... I came to 420 Magazine on a fit of whimsy. My husband was dying and I wanted to keep him high until the end. Since I was going to grow, why not do a grow journal? My only intent was to document the grow for my own record. After all, who cared what a 61-year old...

also i would encourage you to seek out other sites and sources of information. there are several sources dedicated to the medical use of cannabis. the more sources you find, the greater your knowledge base.
