Scottish Parliament Election 2026
Across Scotland, too many people living with a terminal illness are dying without the care and support they need. The next Scottish Government must make sure palliative care is a right, not a privilege.
End of life care in Wales is at breaking point. A system under strain and gaps in provision mean too many people don’t get the care and support they need. The next Welsh Government must act.
End of life care services in the UK are overstretched, underfunded and overlooked, and dying people are paying the price. It doesn’t have to be this way, and now’s our chance to fix it.
It shouldn’t be harder to make ends meet at the end of your life. But many people are pushed into poverty when they’re diagnosed with a terminal illness.
Will you help us fix the urgent end of life care crisis?

It's about speaking out on an important issue that’s affecting tens of thousands of people. I’d always wanted to get into politics, but I always felt it was a bit prohibitive, so campaigning is my way of doing it.
