Acorn Fostering is looking for caring individuals and couples who could open their hearts and homes to children and young people who need a safe, loving and supportive family environment.

Fostering can make a lasting difference to a child’s life by giving them the care, stability and encouragement they need to feel valued, supported and able to thrive. Whether you have previous experience of caring for children or are simply passionate about helping young people, your time, patience and compassion could have a meaningful impact.

If you feel you could open your home and support a child or young person who needs it most, we would love to hear from you. Please get in touch with Acorn Fostering to find out more about becoming a foster carer.

Highlights of Jess & Dave’s Mighty Miles Challenge for Rainbows Children’s Hospice- 28th July 2026

Here is the highlights video from Jess & Dave’s Mighty Miles Challenge yesterday including Dave’s Fall 🤦 watch to see it!

Rainbows is the only children’s hospice in the East Midlands and relies on public donations. Both Jess and Dave met up with Rainbows at their HQ to see first hand what donations do to help rainbows and their work is incredible.

The JustGiving page will be open for another two weeks for you all to keep donating to this amazing hospice.

Thankyou to Rainbows for all the support that they gave Jess and Dave for their Mighty Miles Challenge and also for everyone who has donated so far!

Tomorrow, Jess & Dave take on their Mighty Miles Challenge in support of Rainbows Childrens Hospice

Earlier this year, they set themselves the challenge of raising money for the only children's hospice serving the East Midlands, and that's how the Mighty Miles Challenge was born.

Their challenge is no small feat! They'll be tackling 32km (20 miles) across multi-terrain paths, with a total elevation gain of 606 metres. It's going to be a tough day, but they're ready to give it their all for an incredible cause.

Jess & Dave both work at Acorn Fostering based in Leicester, and have both seen the amazing work Rainbows Children's Hospice does for local children and families. They knew this was the charity they wanted to support.

💜 Can you help them make a difference? Every donation, big or small, will help Rainbows continue providing vital care and support to children with life-limiting conditions and their families.

👉 If you'd like to support Jess & Dave, please visit the donation link in this post.

Thank you for your support, and good luck, Jess & Dave—we'll all be cheering you on! 🎉👏

Jess & Dave’s Mighty 20 Miles for Rainbows Children’s Hospice

Yesterday, Jess and Dave visited Rainbows Children’s Hospice in Loughborough. Seeing first-hand the support they provide to children with life-limiting conditions and their families was incredibly inspiring.

We came away with an even greater appreciation of just how important services like this are—not only for the children they care for, but also for the parents, brothers and sisters navigating incredibly challenging circumstances.

Rainbows is the only children’s hospice in the East Midlands and relies heavily on donations to continue its vital work.

To help support them, Jess and Dave will be walking 20 miles next Tuesday to raise funds for this amazing charity. If you're able to make a donation, no matter how small, it would be hugely appreciated by us and help Rainbows continue making a real difference
to local families.
