Five British people are accepted every month to have their lives ended at an assisted suicide clinic in Switzerland that does not require people to be physically ill.
According to an investigation by The Times, around 65 British people per year are accepted to have their lives ended at Pegasos, an assisted suicide clinic in Switzerland.
The clinic, which was founded in 2019, does not require any evidence that applicants are physically ill in order for them to be accepted to have their lives ended. Pegasos only rejects applicants who fail the mental capacity assessment that Swiss law requires them to administer.
