17 February 2023 · News

Join us for an insightful discussion on the future of assisted dying legilsation across the UK with Polly Toynbee and representatives of the Assisted Dying Coalition.

On February 28th 2023, we bring you a unique opportunity to engage in a thought-provoking evening featuring Polly Toynbee, a respected journalist, author, and commentator, and representatives from the Assisted Dying Coalition, including Emma Cooper, convener at Friends at the End, Micheal Talibard, head of End of Life Choices Jersey, Vicky Christian, head of Let Me Choose now MDMD Isle of Man, and Trevor Moore, Chair of My Death, My Decision (MDMD).

With active consideration of assisted dying legislation in Scotland, England & Wales, Jersey and the Isle of Man, we’re at a critical stage in the campaign for choice at the end of life in the UK. Our panellists will delve into the current state of assisted dying and provide insights into what the future may hold. This presents a  great chance to ask questions and hear from leading experts in the field.

The online event will take place from 19:00 – 20:30 on Zoom. Whether you’re an advocate, sympathiser or simply looking to broaden your understanding of the issue, this is an event not to be missed.
