I wish to be given water and painkillers only. I already have a doctor's letter stating that I do not want to be rescuscitated.

you need to do a health and welfare POA.  it's still not legally binding though

Yes, the Do Not Attempt Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Form that should be on your GP records is legally enforceable under the Human Rights Act

Your wishes must be taken into account but they are not legally enforceable and anyone who wishes to challenge them can seek the assistance of the Court of Protection.
