Acorns Children’s Hospice has welcomed a ‘one-off’ allocation of capital funding from the Government towards upgrading buildings, facilities and digital infrastructure – which will help ensure it has the ‘very best facilities’ to deliver care to children across the region.
But Chief Executive Trevor Johnson has continued to call on the Prime Minister to provide long-term sustainable funding to help deliver vital care to children with life limiting or life threatening conditions and support for their families.
Acorns is set to receive £906,009 for 2025/26, which can be spent on modernising hospice buildings and facilities.
