Graham Irvine is a Sessional Lecturer in Law and Justice at
Southern Cross University, Lismore, having practised as a solicitor
in NSW and Queensland. His background includes radio journalism
and documentary production for ABC Radio. He has lived on an
intentional community outside Nimbin for 35 years.
Graham is one of the few people who have managed to negotiate
the medical minefield here in Australia to get prescription
Sativex for his Parkinsons. It was too expensive, and not as
effective as the plant material.
