Without your help, it would be impossible for Compassion in Dying to support people to access the care and treatment that is right for them at the end of life. 

Whether you make a donation, leave a legacy, raise awareness or tell your story, by lending your support to Compassion in Dying you can help to make a vital difference to someone's life by enabling them to have what they consider to be a good death.

Make a donation

Almost all of Compassion in Dying's work is funded by voluntary donations.  Your donations allow us to provide free Advance Decisions - formerly called living wills - for control at the end of life, conduct research and provide information and education on patients' rights and options at the end of life.

Leave a Gift in your will

By leaving a Gift to Compassion in Dying in your will, you can help people in the future to have choice and control at the end of life.  However big or small your Gift is, you can be sure that it will mean a lot to our work.

Tell your story

Do you have a recent experience of end-of-life care - good or bad - that you would be willing to share?  We can use people's stories to demonstrate how people are currently being treated at the end of life, to highlight what is working well and show how a bad death can affect people, and also their carers and families.

Raise awareness

Could you help us to tell people about their rights at the end of life?  Perhaps you are a member of a group or network, or would be willing to speak to others about how to stay in control.
