The staff at Acorns are too incredible for words. They understood
what we were going through, made us feel like part of their big
family and somehow kept it a happy, fun place to be.
They provide support not only to the parents, but grandparents,
friends and anybody else involved with the special child. They can
also provide essential respite to families so they get a break
from the draining emotional rollercoaster of looking after a life
limited child.

After Alice passed away, Acorns helped us through some of the
darkest days that myself and my family would ever
have to face. They carefully guided me
through it all, like they had for the
previous 10 months.
I honestly don't know how we would
have got through our journey without
Acorns.
Jess, Alice’s mum.
