I have visited all these hospices and have been moved beyond words by all that they do, by the people I have met and the children whose hands I have held. Hospices are not desolate places. They are life-affirming, and the support given to families at a time of unimaginable grief is compassionate and extraordinary. The hospices also support families at home, particularly if that is where the family wants their child to die. They run a family services team who provide bereavement and social support, and work with siblings, who are so often forgotten and neglected.
