Good afternoon friend,
This is the calm before the storm. We are on the brink of the most intense, most
sustained stretch of campaigning Dignity in Dying has ever attempted - and you have a vital role to play.

We are in the unprecedented position of campaigning for law change in both
Westminster and Holyrood at the same time. The Assisted Dying Bill in the House
of Lords and the proposals soon to be launched in the Scottish Parliament will
need stewarding through their respective Parliaments. They need high-profile
press, ad campaigns, and behind-the-scenes influencing. They need creative,
attention-grabbing tactics to tell the stories of dying people and their
families.
But most of all - they need you. Momentum is on our side and we need to be able to capture and capitalise on
every inch of it. If you can, please join as a member today

In the next month alone we’re expecting the launch of a public consultation in Scotland - the first step towards the legalisation of assisted dying in the Scottish
Parliament and the chance for all Scots to have their say.
The British Medical Association will also finally be debating the results of last year’s survey which showed that doctors were
more than ready for a change in the BMA’s position from opposed to neutral.
We’ll also be gearing up for the Second Reading - the first real debate - of the
Assisted Dying Bill in the House of Lords so do keep an eye out for exciting developments and
opportunities to get involved.
If you’ve been thinking about whether to join as a member
[[link removed]] - now is the time. We need to be able to throw everything at these efforts to pave the way to
victory.

Have a great weekend. Rest-up, recharge - and we’ll see you in the Autumn.
All the best,
