Good afternoon friend,
As you know, the all-important Second Reading of Baroness Meacher’s Assisted
Dying Bill will take place on the 22nd October 2021 - just three weeks from today.
Over the last week supporters like you have sent more than 2,000 personal
letters to Peers, persuading them to attend and speak in our favour. This is a
huge achievement - but it’s vital we also have a strong in-person presence
outside the House of Lords on the day. Can you join us in Westminster
[[link removed]] to demonstrate in support of the Bill and encourage Peers to say ‘Yes to
Dignity’?
When : 9am-3pm
Where : George V Statue, Old Palace Yard, Westminster, London, SW1A 0PW
Register : On eventbrite

In previous years, our numbers have been strong and the demo has added great
energy and motivation to Peers on the day - but this year needs to be bigger and better to show Parliament that support for
this Bill is stronger than ever.
We know from experience that opponents will turn up in force. Their
scaremongering tactics and refusal to engage with the testimony of dying people
mustn’t be allowed to dominate the day. The more Dignity in Dying supporters
turn out to back the Bill, the louder our message of hope, compassion and reason
will resonate with Peers.

We need an assisted dying law that is safe, fair and compassionate and we need it now. To make the most out of every opportunity on the road to
law change, we need you to join us and take a stand for dignity and choice on the 22nd October.
