Ice cream van giving away free 99s in Liverpool today

People in Liverpool can get their hands on a free ice cream cone today.

Orange County CBD, one of the UK's most successful CBD brands and multiple award winner, will be touring Liverpool in a branded ice-cream van, dishing out free ice-cream cones as the heatwave continues. CBD is a type of cannabinoid, a chemical found naturally in cannabis plants, which doesn't cause the 'high' feeling often associated with cannabis - that feeling is caused by tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), a different type of cannabinoid.

To spread some joy and offer some much-needed rest from the record-high temperatures soaring across the UK this week, Orange County CBD has taken over a local ice cream truck to hand out free ice cream cones to people in Liverpool and Manchester. The truck will be in and around the Albert Dock today for those wanting to give the ice cream a try.

Orange County CBD's co-founder said: "We're a company that wants to give back as much as we take out. Our community has been crucial to Orange County's success, and this is just a little way for us to do our part for the public.

"We recently launched Orange County CBD's corporate social responsibility initiative called 'Orange County Community (OCC)' that promises to deliver a supportive, fun, positive and impactful experiences for everyone."

Keep an eye out today for the Orange County CBD ice cream truck to get your hands on a one-of-a-kind orange sherbet covered ice cream cone. To track where the truck is throughout the day, follow @occommunity_ on Instagram.
