This club has set itself the task of handing over to its members jointly grown to its members and received official approval at the end of 2024. Chairman Dominik de Marco emphasizes the responsibility of the club to ensure the legal tax under strict requirements.

The members can receive up to 50 grams of cannabis per month, the maximum daily amount is 25 grams. To ensure quality, the cannabis is tested for purity, residues and pollutants in a certified laboratory. Previous samples have been tested perfectly. In view of the high demand, the club had to stop the admission of new members at times, but plans to accept new applicants again in June 2025. In order to expand the production capacities, the club is working on improving the cultivation and security infrastructure.

sustainability and responsibility in the club

A central aspect of the cannabis social club Dortmund is the developed youth and consumer protection concept that goes beyond the legal requirements. The concept stipulates that three prevention officers stand in exchange with addiction advice centers and carry out training. Anyone who is at least 18 years old and has been registered in Germany for six months can become a member. Applications are accepted via the club's website. The foundation of the club structures was founded in accordance with the legal requirements for cannabis social clubs (CSCs), which have been defined as part of the partialization of cannabis in Germany, which has been in force since April 1, 2024.

CSCs may comprise a maximum of 500 members, must be led as non-profit associations and are designed for non-commercial work. Profits must be reinvested, the financing is made by membership fees. However, community consumption in and around the club rooms is not permitted to avoid misuse and problems with public security, as well as the Federal Ministry of Health

traffic safety in the context of cannabis use

Another aspect of legalizing cannabis in Germany is the adaptation of road traffic regulations to ensure security in traffic. On August 22, 2024, a law came into force that introduces a THC limit of 3.5 ng/ml in the blood serum. As a result, every participant in road traffic must be traveling, which is particularly important for consumers. There is a cannabis ban for beginners and a ban on the mixed consumption of cannabis and alcohol. These measures are part of the comprehensive provisions that also aim at the effects of cannabis on traffic safety.

Overall, the development in Dortmund shows that the legalization of cannabis is associated with responsibility and sustainable concepts. With the Cannabis Social Club Dortmund, a model is created that not only regulates access to cannabis, but also relies on prevention and quality.
