They paid tribute to former leader Tim Bell, from Sherwood
Campaigners have urged MPs to 'Make Time for Assisted Dying' in a demonstration honouring a former activist. In the process, The Nottingham Dignity in Dying group paid tribute to former leader Tim Bell, from Sherwood, who died of bowel cancer aged 70 in 2018.
Tim was formerly the director of a charity in Nottingham whose aim was to support those affected by homelessness. The local group are continuing Tim’s legacy by urging MPs to pledge Make Time for Assisted Dying at demonstrations on Saturday in West Bridgford and Sunday, October 15, between 11am – 1pm in Beeston .
"It's a specific campaign for adults with a terminal illness who are mentally competent and have a prognosis of six months or less to make a choice. It is not about ending a life that can be lived. It's about shortening a painful death".
