People first, disability second

Happy Easter Everyone from us all at Acorn Village!

**IMPORTANT UPDATE** The Acorn Village Coffee Shop is now open to the public!  We are open Monday to Friday 9.30am to 4pm.

28th September 2021- The Manningtree Charity Shop will now only be taking ‘Shop Ready’ donations on a Monday. We still have resource issues and do not have the people to clean or fix items or run car boot sales on our behalf. 

We are desperate for volunteers. If you have some hours free and are able to help please contact us at supportus@acornvillages.com 

All staff and volunteers will still be adhering to previous guidelines regarding masks and social distancing.

If you use E-bay it would really make a difference if you chose to donate a percentage of your selling total to the Acorn Village Charity to help adults with learning disabilities.
Don’t forget to check out the Acorn E-bay Shop on a regular basis to discover what bargains the volunteers have been listing.
It’s a tough time for so many, stay safe, there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Read about the difference you have made in our latest Impact Report and continue your incredible support by donating financially.

Our residents and tenants will always come first, staff are working around the clock to constantly update procedures as per the Government guidelines.

You can find regular updates via our social media pages and blogs.

Keep safe everybody #StaySafeSaveLives

Welcome to Acorn Village

In addition to our care services, we also have a number of fundraising facilities that are open to our residents, their families and the public.  Why not come and join us for lunch at our onsite Coffee Shop or find a bargain within our onsite Charity Shop and Pre-loved Furniture Store.

Throughout the year, our Creative Craft Centre is open to showcase project work or sell items that have been made within the workshops.
