The office will now be closed until the 4th January so our amazing staff team can enjoy a well deserved break!

You have all worked so hard this year in such difficult circumstances, that have seen us adapt, innovate and come out stronger than ever.

From myself (Abby - manager) and our Board of Trustees, thank you all for your enthusiasm and dedication ❤️ #teamwork #thankyou #bringonthenewyear ...

❤️LONG *THANK YOU* POST ALERT!❤️
Further to all of the many thank you posts we have put up lately, this is the last one this year, and a very important one indeed!

Every year, Acorns is always pleased to receive and distribute what is always a huge donation of Christmas gifts from the staff at Benton Park View offices in Longbenton, to the families that access our services.

This year, we have seen higher levels of need than ever before. Some people have lost their jobs and livelihoods, and having children at home for the majority of the year has put added pressures on parents at a very uncertain time. We are not out of the woods yet, and we are seeing increasingly high level of referrals into the service as domestic abuse incidents increase, caused in part by the effects of constant lockdowns and restrictions. As such, support such as this - Nearly £2000 worth of Christmas gifts for all ages! - is hugely needed and appreciated.

We would like to send a particular thank you and recognition to Alison, who organises this each year, and her colleague Laura, who have gone to great lengths to adapt their usual gift collection in a way that fits around home working and the restrictions we are under, to great success – Alison, we are also totally honoured to receive an additional £500 from you and your family, from the collection from your Grandmother’s funeral this week, and we will make sure this goes to the children who need it most, in her name.

Your support is massively appreciated, and you should all feel proud of the amazing work you do. There will be some extra-happy families this Christmas because of you all!

From all of our emotional, grateful staff team - thank you everyone who has supported us this year, you are all amazing and we couldn't do what we do without you ❤️ #communityspirit #grateful #thankyou ...
