The Pearson's family story
When Faith Pearson's five month old son fell ill just before Christmas 2021, The Sick Children's Trust's 'Homes from Home' at Sheffield Children's Hospital helped her family when they needed it most.
We’re celebrating 40 years of keeping families together. Please donate to our appeal today and help us support families for years to come.

The Smith's family story
Lucas and Leo were born eight weeks premature on Christmas Day. Lucas later needed further treatment when he was struggling with his breathing and needed specialist care. Acorn House made sure the family were always together.
'Homes From Home'
When a child suddenly becomes ill, there’s no time to plan. We're here to give families one less thing to worry about by giving them a place to stay, free of charge just minutes from their child’s bedside.
