Why your regular gift matters

Every day, we care for children like Alex. Diagnosed with a rare, life-threatening condition, Alex’s family found their world turned upside down. Mum Sam was struggling to care for Alex on her own. Then Acorns stepped in.

“I hadn’t slept properly in weeks. I didn’t think there were people who could help, but Acorns did. They’ve supported us in every way – emotionally, physically, and mentally. Thanks to Acorns, I now have the strength to make the most of every day with Alex, even though the future is uncertain.” – Alex’s Mum, Sam
