Our vision is an Australia where we all have choice at the end of life. We empower people to choose the care that is right for them, including the option of voluntary assisted dying. 

Go Gentle Australia was founded in 2016 by broadcaster Andrew Denton. We are a national charity that promotes and enables choice at the end of life, including the option of voluntary assisted dying. 

Our vision is an Australia where we can all choose the end-of-life care that is right for us. We have been instrumental in passing voluntary assisted dying laws in all six Australian states and the ACT, and now work to ensure these laws operate as intended, are protected and improved, and that compassionate, person-centred end-of-life care is available for all Australians. 

Voluntary assisted dying laws allow terminally ill adults with decision-making capacity, and who are at the end of their life, to request help from a doctor to end their suffering. Voluntary assisted dying is also sometimes called assisted dying, physician assisted dying or medical assistance to die.
