Sarah Wootton is CEO of Dignity in Dying and has led the campaign for choice at the end of life from the margins to the mainstream in Parliament, the courts and the media. She established and is also CEO of Dignity in Dying's sister charity, Compassion in Dying, which empowers people to take control of their end-of-life treatment and care under the current law. She is a trustee of the Sheila McKechnie Foundation and previously led campaigning at the Equal Opportunities Commission and the Family Planning Association. Lloyd Riley joined the Policy and Research team at Dignity in Dying and Compassion in Dying in 2014. He is committed to giving a voice to the dying people and bereaved relatives who have been and continue to be failed by the current law.Drawing on his experience in the hospice sector and study of assisted dying laws around the world, Riley believes widespread change is needed to establish a culture around death and dying in the UK that truly respects the wishes of the individual.
