My last post on here. X doesn't feel like the place to be and is increasingly toxic. You can find me instead on Bluesky: @acornstrevor.bsky.social

Hope to see you there.

As ever Paul is quite right, as a newcomer to Birmingham I love the vibrancy and innovation of my adopted city.

[Paul Cadman 🇬🇧 @PaulCadmanUK]

Shoutout to the incredible people of Birmingham! 🌟 The city’s vibrant energy and rapid growth are truly inspiring. From its rich history to its innovative spirit, Birmingham is a place where community and progress thrive together. Proud to be part of this amazing journey! #Birmingham #CityOfGrowth #CommunitySpirit

[Trevor Johnson @TjohnsonTrevor]

It's so important to say thank you - our supporters and community make it possible for us to be there for the children and families we support.

[Acorns Children's Hospice @AcornsHospice]

Happy Thank You Week! 🎉

This week is all about us saying thank you to the incredible supporters and volunteers, who ensure we can continue to deliver our vital care 24/7, 365 days a year.

Thank you so much for everything you do to support our hospices ♥

I have a blood condition that means I am alive solely because of the generosity of blood and plasma donors like Paul. Please support this challenge.

[Paul Cadman 🇬🇧 @PaulCadmanUK]

The #Plasma10Challenge is launching next week during Plasma Donor Week.
To mark my 150th plasma donation, I am challenging 10 Birmingham organisations located near the Donor Centre in Birmingham New Street to volunteer 10 donors to give plasma.
17000 people across the UK depend on plasma, it is used for medicines and to treat 50 types of the diseases. If you are up for helping fellow humans in need at no cost to you - then please scan the QR code in the attached flyer and get yourself registered, it only takes 60 seconds. Once your company has 10 registrations, get in touch so I can help you get some small group bookings organised. Please do not forget to share your donor journey on socials and use the above hashtags and tag @givebloodnhs @nhsbloodandtransplant

[Trevor Johnson @TjohnsonTrevor]

I love Easter at our hospices, bunnies and chicks everywhere! Selly Oak showing the theme at our stay and play session

[Trevor Johnson @TjohnsonTrevor]

30% of areas reach the standards. No area gets proper sustainable funding, and we are still waiting for confirmation of funding for the financial year that starts in less than 2 weeks. This cannot go on, short lives can't wait.

[ITV News @itvnews]

New figures show only 30% of areas under NHS England are meeting the proper standards for 24/7 children's palliative care

[Trevor Johnson @TjohnsonTrevor]

Thanks to Villa and Andy. The level of support from everyone is so humbling.

[Andy Street @andy4wm]

I think Villa’s kit is slightly more stylish than my vest 😂

Pleased to see @AcornsHospice - a charity I've been proud to support - on the shirts of @astonvilla tonight ⚽️

The work they do for young people & their families is outstanding & represents the very best of the WM 👏🏻

[Trevor Johnson @TjohnsonTrevor]

@BandanaSavos @SueMasonBurns @AVFCOfficial @AcornsHospice @europacnfleague I am 6 foot 8 exactly! It does tend to make others look small in photos! I had to laugh at Sue's comment

[Trevor Johnson @TjohnsonTrevor]

So thrilled with this amazing support. Thank you - Acorns goes to Europe! 😉 Hopefully it will bring luck to Aston Villa.

[Aston Villa @AVFCOfficial]

Aston Villa is delighted to announce that @AcornsHospice will appear on the front of the team’s shirts in Thursday’s @EuropaCnfLeague Last-16 tie at Ajax.

[Trevor Johnson @TjohnsonTrevor]

@lauralexx Evesham - the regal is a great comedy venue.

[Trevor Johnson @TjohnsonTrevor]

So grateful for the support @NachuralEvents. It means that we can continue to be there for children and families when they need us.

[Nachural @NachuralEvents]

Nachural would like to thank everyone who has attended our events.

Over the years you have all contributed to raising an amazing £75,000 for @AcornsHospice through the Nachural events. Thank you for your kindness and generosity.

[Trevor Johnson @TjohnsonTrevor]

It's a rowing themed week or so. Following on from the Worcester buoys and their amazing achievement rowing the Atlantic, getting the opportunity thanks to @HW_Chamber to listen to @ZacPurchase telling us about the lessons that translate.

[Trevor Johnson @TjohnsonTrevor]

Thankful for the support from Nachural and hoping that I will see you there.

[The Signature Awards @SignatureAward]
