If assisted suicide Bill passes, create fund for care costs for terminally ill
If the Bill passes, set up a fund for terminally ill people who would choose to live the rest of their natural life, but who are concerned that their care is costing their family thousands of pounds and feel obliged to accept being killed via Assisted Suicide.

Background
The Terminally Ill Adults (End of Life) Bill is currently being considered by Parliament despite concerns about terminally ill people feeling like a burden, feeling unconsciously pressured or being otherwise coerced into accepting death administered by a hospital.
We believe a dedicated fund provided by the Government to subsidise families in this situation would mitigate these concerns.
