𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐖𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐬, Patron of East Anglia Children's Hospice & Tŷ Hafan Children’s Hospice, has released a special message to mark the 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐥𝐝𝐫𝐞𝐧'𝐬 𝐇𝐨𝐬𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐖𝐞𝐞𝐤 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔.
She said :
❝ Every childhood deserves to be rich in joy, love, and shared memories. As Patron of East Anglia's Children's Hospices and Tŷ Hafan Children's Hospice, I have been privileged to see first-hand how children's hospices make this possible for babies, children and young people living with serious illness.
Children's hospices are joyful and nurturing environments where children can simply be children; to play, explore, express themselves and connect with others.
For families, hospices offer a compassionate and restorative space to breathe, be together, and find strength in a community that understands their journey. This expert, holistic care is delivered by dedicated professionals who walk alongside families at every stage, often over many years, throughout a young person's life and, when needed, into death and bereavement.
Children's hospices are places that protect connection; between children and their families, between families and their communities, between hospice staff and the people they support, and within each child's own sense of self.
When we shine a light on the remarkable, yet often unseen, work that children's hospices do to help families live as fully as possible, we can break down one of the greatest barriers they face: the fear that reaching out means giving up hope, or that care only begins at the very end.
Even in the most challenging circumstances, when children are surrounded by attuned care, opportunities for expression, and environments that nurture their whole selves, they can experience joy, belonging and the freedom to be who they are.
These extraordinary places remind us that even in the face of serious illness, childhood remains a time of creativity, connection and possibility.
This Children's Hospice Week, I hope you will join me in celebrating the countless ways children's hospices make every moment count for the children and families they support, and in recognising the profound, life-changing impact of the culture of care they are working to create.

women should have thighs the size of mattresses
While I’m at it with my childhood fave media, I’m gonna put out there I’ve had the position that Raven and Hunter should have a really, frankly very, weird friendship going on. Hunter being the son of Raven’s family huntsman, is clearly being raised to fill that role although to no avail, they would’ve been raised together in some capacity.
Being raised to know one would betray the other and become their downfall, and until then, as the story goes, one is under the complete and total control of the other.
Weirdly codependent, and maybe their friendship in their youth and learning of the other’s lack of want to follow their fate’s path, just further solidified their early stances.
A young Hunter and Raven trying to whisp away and avoid ‘lessons’ together, learning quickly that if it looked like Raven was bossing Hunter around and Hunter pretending to loyally obey, others left them alone.
Idk just the thought of them being mentally struggling kids together becoming each others buoy before they get to finally make connections outside of the other… like, what if because of the isolation they were each others first puppy love crushes? Raven would’ve had no one else simply bc of who she is, and Hunter’s fate being doing her future dirty work others around him would be hesitant as well.
Weirdly codependent, first not-love, first kiss, first secrets Raven and Hunter. Not really exes, can’t ever really be just friends, confidants, something so fragile and volatile they agree to not ever venture into those mental mind fields.
I know this would kinda have no basis in canon but let me live in my little rewrite world.
