🌿 A hands-on session at Acorn 🌿

During a recent session, we’ve been out on the land learning how to install new fencing posts - preparing the ground, positioning the posts, and securing them to create safe and sturdy boundaries 🪵

It builds confidence and develops practical, real-life skills. From using the post knocker to lining everything up accurately, there’s been a real sense of achievement 💪

We even had a visit from our curious four-legged friends 🫏 who came over to check out the progress!

Sessions like this are what Acorn is all about -learning through doing, enjoying the outdoors, and building confidence in a meaningful way.

Fantastic Job 🤩

We’ve had a fantastic time out in the community recently! 🌟

From travel training trips to Bridlington and Beverley, to taking part in local Easter events, everyone has been building confidence, independence, and real-life skills along the way.

It’s not just about getting out and about either - we’ve also been keeping active and focusing on our health and wellbeing 💪

A brilliant mix of community, learning, and staying healthy - and today we’ve broken up for Easter, ready for a well-deserved rest.

Wishing everyone a lovely long weekend 🐰

🐣🌸 Easter Fun at Acorn! 🌸🐣

This week our groups have been busy getting into the Easter spirit with some fantastic activities!

We’ve made delicious Easter egg-filled cheesecakes - created and decorated by the groups themselves - as well as tasty mini egg cornflake crispy buns 🍫

Alongside all the baking, everyone also enjoyed getting creative making Easter cards to share with others 💌

It’s been a lovely week full of fun, creativity, teamwork, and plenty of chocolate! 🐰✨

🌱 A lovely day at Acorn 🌱

One of our groups has been busy potting up today, getting hands-on with planting and growing 🌿

Golden courgette, spring onions, honeycomb tomatoes, red peppers, basil… and even some cucamelons 🥒🍉

A brilliant session supporting life skills, teamwork, and enjoying time outdoors together ☀️

We’re looking forward to seeing how everything grows! 🌼

What a lovely morning we had today! ☕😊

One of our groups enjoyed a visit to the Kings Mill School Coffee Shop, and what a warm welcome we received.
Everyone is so friendly and supportive - it really made the visit special.

It was great to support the sixth form students as they build their confidence and life skills, and of course… we couldn’t resist the Easter raffle 🐣🐾 We were lucky enough to win some prizes too! 🎉

A big well done to everyone involved - days like this are what community is all about 😊

What a fantastic week it’s been at Acorn so far! 🌿✨

We kicked things off with some lovely gardening sessions, getting our hands dirty and enjoying the fresh air 🌱 – there’s nothing better than seeing things grow!

We’ve also enjoyed a trip down to Riverhead, feeding the ducks 🦆 and taking in the peaceful surroundings together.

Midweek brought a bit of adventure as we split into groups – some headed off to Beverley while others explored Bridlington, giving everyone a chance to enjoy something a little different and special 🚶‍♀️🌊

To top it all off, we got creative in the kitchen with our Red Nose Day bake-off 🍪🎉 Teams worked together to make some brilliant (and delicious!) Red Nose biscuits – full of laughs, teamwork, and a bit of friendly competition! 🏆 Well done, teams! 🌟

Just a little snippet of what we’ve been up to so far 📸

Happy Mother’s Day to all the wonderful mums, carers and mother figures. 💐

Over the last couple of weeks, some of our Acorn team chose to make special cards for the important people in their lives, and we wanted to share a few of their lovely creations.

Today we’re wishing a very happy Mother’s Day to all mums, carers, and those who take on a nurturing role in someone’s life. Thank you for the care, support and kindness you give - it makes such a difference every single day. 💕 🌷

✨ This Week at Acorn - Trip to Gravity! ✨

This week the Acorn group had a brilliant visit to Gravity Trampoline Park. There was lots of laughter, plenty of bouncing and some fantastic encouragement between everyone taking part!

Activities like this aren’t just fun -they bring so many benefits. Trampolining and physical activity help to:

• Improve physical fitness and coordination
• Build confidence when trying something new
• Support wellbeing through movement and laughter
• Encourage teamwork and social interaction
• Provide positive shared experiences and memories

It was also lovely to connect with other services, network, and see some familiar faces and friends from the past, which made the day even more special. Building these connections helps strengthen our community and create more opportunities for everyone involved.

Days like this show how powerful simple activities can be in supporting wellbeing, confidence and connection. 🌱

🎤 Afternoon entertainment at Acorn! 🎶

This afternoon we had some fantastic entertainment from one of the team members who attends Acorn. He loves entertaining others and today he performed a brilliant tribute to his idol, Daniel O’Donnell.

There was lots of clapping, smiling and joining in as everyone enjoyed the performance. It really lifted the afternoon and showed just how much confidence and talent our team members have.

Thank you for the wonderful entertainment -we loved it! 👏🎶
