My Life, My Decision is a two-year programme funded by the Big Lottery Silver Dreams Fund. It is a partnership between Compassion in Dying and seven local Age UKs across England. The project provides face-to-face volunteer support to people aged over 50 to plan ahead for their future treatment and care. It also raises awareness of advance care planning amongst the public, professionals and other organisations. The project worked with Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) groups to address the challenges they face when accessing information and support to plan their care.
