BRITAIN’S first Apple-style Cannabis Oil store has opened its doors in Cirencester.

Goodbody Wellness proudly welcomed its first customers to the shop at Brewery Court, The Exchange over the weekend.

The shop is selling more than 50 Cannabidiol (CBD) products including drops, balms, bath bombs, a skincare range and even coffee.

Managing director Chris Jones said: “There is a real hunger for knowledge surrounding CBD products and the benefits that can be derived from using it.

“Experts are sounding the death knell for the High Street up and down the country. But we have taken the decision to bring Goodbody Wellness back into the heartland of the community.”

“There is phenomenal interest in CBD but people have told us that they are not comfortable buying products online. They don’t know what they are getting and say they can’t be sure about the quality of the product.

“In contrast, our fully-trained store staff are available to take customers by the hand and talk them through exactly what CBD oil is all about."

Around 300,000 people in the UK are using CBD in an attempt to ease health conditions.

The Somerset-based company launched its first wellness store in Bath last month and plans to open a store in Clifton by the end of August, before going nationwide.
