ALERT aims to act as a bridge between individuals and organisations, in Britain and abroad, which are concerned by the growing threat of legalised euthanasia. It has been founded to provide well-documented information on euthanasia and related issues, and to defend the lives and rights of the medically vulnerable.
ALERTis a British initiative, funded only by donations from people in this country. It is affiliated to the International Task Force on Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide, the U.S.A.’s primary source of information opposing euthanasia, and is in touch with the World Federation of Doctors who Respect Human Life, of which the headquarters is in the Netherlands.
