The important vote for all MPs on the assisted suicide legislation, known as the Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill, is likely to take place on 25th April. The charity Right to Life UK has a simple online mechanism to allow people to contact their Member of Parliament and it only takes a few moments to submit a message to ask an MP to stop assisted suicide being rushed into law. It can be accessed here: https://righttolife.org.uk/asvote. Right to Life is also distributing postcards to parishes for the faithful to send to their MPs on this subject. The Bishop has also been approached by the Care Not Killing Alliance advertising their work in defeating the proposed legislation on Assisted Suicide.

A range of further resources on opposing assisted suicide is available here: https://www.cbcew.org.uk/opposing-assisted-suicide/.
