Good afternoon friend,



The pressure is on in Parliament. Because of your support, doors of opportunity are unlocking that would have
seemed impossible even a year ago. Today, I’m writing to you with an opportunity
to push one very important door wide open.



At our next All Party Parliamentary Group meeting on 27 April at 5pm, Secretary
of State for Health, Matt Hancock, will be speaking to cross-party MPs and Peers
about the current law on assisted dying.



This is the first time a serving Cabinet Minister will be not just in
attendance, but speaking to a parliamentary meeting on assisted dying - an
enormous win for the campaign. It is crucial that your MP is there.

In this meeting, Matt Hancock will speak in conversation with our All Party
Parliamentary Group co-chairs, Karin Smyth MP and Andrew Mitchell MP, discussing
assisted dying in the current political landscape.


MPs and peers will also hear from someone with personal experience of a dying
loved one being forced to take their own life as a result of the blanket ban on
assisted dying, and the heartbreaking consequences of the current law.

Getting as many MPs to attend this meeting as possible will demonstrate to the
Secretary of State the depth of feeling on this issue - both among MPs and their
constituents. It will also show MPs that concerns about the current law are being heard at the upper echelons of
Government.



Matt Hancock has said the Government would gather evidence on the number of
dying people ending their lives at home if this would help to inform the debate. By inviting your MP

to be collected, there is an urgent need for a new law that protects dying people and their
families by providing genuine end-of-life choice.
