I've noticed that there aren't many pages on individual hospices (I've only found two so far). I'm new to editing but would be happy to do a list of UK children's hospices with links to the appropriate external pages. I'd be interested in writing pages for the three hospices I'm familiar with (none of which have pages). Is this something that would be useful? I'd also be happy to reword the tone of this page, but I'm not sure what specifically is inappropriate Kebl2693 23:34, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

What is inappropriate is that this page is little more than a directory. Delete the organisations and provide instead some information on how hospice differs for kids vs adults, history of the children's hospice movement, and any pertinent cultural issues. Also add links to WP pages re respite care, visiting nurses, etc. --Una Smith (talk) 20:26, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
