About Acorns Children's Hospice

Acorns provides care, support, fun and laughter for children with life limiting or life threatening conditions and their families. In the last year, we have supported 787 children and 1,223 family members across the organisation, including those who have been bereaved.

It costs almost £10 million each year to provide vital care in our three hospices, as well as in the family home and the community. 73p from every £1 you play in the lottery comes directly to Acorns, the remaining 27p funds the lottery management and prize fund.
