Acorns Cheque Presentation
On Friday 15th November John Tristram the Intendant-General, accompanied by Jim Mulligan the Deputy Intendant-General, Jim Coxon the Divisional Treasurer and Geoff Watkins the Divisional Recorder, was pleased to be able to present a cheque for £2500 from the Grand Sovereign’s Care Fund for Children to Acorns Children’s Hospice ‘Black County Hospice Appeal’. The hospice has been under threat of closure due to severe financial constraints and we were pleased to be able to make a contribution towards their appeal
By coincidence, on the same day as our presentation, Acorns announced that due to the success of the Black Country Appeal, they have been able to keep the hospice open. We wish them every success for the future
