When Go Gentle was created in 2016, our first objective was to make voluntary assisted dying (VAD) a legally available choice for all eligible Australians. 

Darwin resident Gavin Perry, 74,  was recently diagnosed with a rare form of eye cancer. He wants the option of VAD - except it's not legal in the NT. 

Lori Martin has a progressive and incurable lung condition. She wants the option of an assisted death. But she lives in the NT, the only place in Australia that has not passed a VAD law.

The Northern Territory has moved a step closer to having end-of-life choice with an independent advisory panel recommending it join the rest of the country and introduce voluntary assisted dying laws.

After breaking her back at 53, battling breast cancer for 12 years, and enduring two hip replacements, Liz Holmes was in unbearable pain. All she wanted was the choice to die peacefully and without pain.
