The West Malvern Garden and Nature Club ran one of the "plant crèches" at the RHS Spring Show, collecting donations to go to Acorns Children's Hospice instead of charging for their services.

The hospice offers a network of specialist palliative nursing care and support for children and their families.

It provides short breaks for children at its hospices, along with various other therapeutic and psychosocial support services.

In the past year, the hospice has supported 781 children and 1,045 families across the West Midlands.
