Oppose Assisted Suicide
Legislation is passing through parliament seeking to legalise assisted suicide.
In early September 2024, when parliament returned and a Bill on assisted suicide – so-called assisted dying – started its passage through the House of Lords, our Lead Bishop for Life Issues, Bishop John Sherrington, called for Catholics to unite in prayer and compassionate action.
See Cardinal Vincent Nichols letter and speech on Assisted Suicide.
More resources from the Catholic Bishops of England and Wales on opposing assisted suicide.
Our Diocese: Bishop Bosco MacDonald is calling on Catholics in the Diocese of Clifton to unite in prayer and compassionate action to oppose assisted suicide. Full details are on our diocesan website page.
