Been listening to the 5 Live BreakFast Show from Acorns Children's Hospice in Worcester.
I wasn't able to listen to all of it (will try tonight) but the bit I did hear affected me profoundly.
Having said that listening to the fortitude of some of the kids was really brilliant! (I was particually impressed by a teenager called Alex who has muscular dystrophy who had a pretty good line in banter ....)
Most uplifting.
One thing though: why does the Government fund children's hospices less than the equivilant adult ones on a proportional basis? This surely isn't right.
Update
Discovered that Alex has a blog here .... and photos here:
