“Do No Harm” is a short documentary on assisted dying, created by Being Catholic TV, which highlights some of the grave concerns around proposals to legalise assisted dying in the UK and Scottish Parliaments.
The documentary, which features Cardinal Vincent Nichols, Bishop John Keenan, Dr Gillian Wright, Lord David Alton, and Professor David Albert Jones, gathers together experts from the medical and palliative care professions alongside prominent politicians, ethics experts and religious leaders to construct a unified voice of unease.
It spotlights key concerns around preserving human dignity and protections for vulnerable groups. It challenges the robustness of tabled safeguards in the UK legislation by citing the experience of other jurisdictions, which quickly eased access and expanded eligibility.
