We were on our way to the Dignitas clinic, where Vicki would die less than a week later.

To help, Dignitas provides professional development training to teachers and school administrators.

About 100 Britons are believed to have ended their lives at the Swiss clinic of the right-to-die organisation Dignitas.

In the morning, we took a taxi towards the outskirts of the city, where the Dignitas house is based, and two volunteers took us inside.

Around 100 Britons have trekked to Switzerland to end their days at Dignitas.

Since 2009, Dignitas has worked with 25 schools and trained more than 270 school directors, teachers and community members.
