Marie Curie Campaigns

Last year Marie Curie provided vital support to 8,000 people across Scotland.

But by 2040 up to 10,000 more people will need palliative and end of life care in Scotland each year. That means that, without increased investment, thousands of Scots could end up dying without the support that they deserve.

Living with a terminal illness is difficult enough. Dying people and their loved ones should be focusing on the time they have left, not fighting for support that they desperately need. It's not fair.

The Scottish Government has the power to make sure that end of life care is a national priority — but we need your support to make this happen.

Do you agree that everyone in Scotland should have a right to the palliative and end of life care that they need? Together we can show the Scottish Government that this is an issue they can't ignore.
