Advance directives

An advance directive lets the right to say no carry on after you have lost the ability to decide. In Scotland it rests on the general law rather than a statute of its own, and that has consequences for how you write it.

Urgent support

We support people facing the end of life and promote choice at that time; we don’t provide information about methods of ending life. For urgent support, Samaritans are on 116 123, free, day or night. Breathing Space is on 0800 83 85 87. For questions about your own care, your GP or palliative care team is the right first call.
