We are delighted to present the new Seeds of Change website. Following Stable and Wild and The Seeds of Change KMD LTD making the decision to focus in their own regions, we have been working to roll out a full The Seeds of Change KMD (TSOCEquine) rebrand.

The Acorn Centre is important to us at the Seeds of Change as it is our home, The Acorn and  because of what every tiny new Acorn provides, so many opportunities for metaphors and signifies:

As Chaucer wrote “mighty oaks from little acorns grow” and helping the people we work with to start to sow the seeds to enable positive changes in their lives is the focus and purpose of our work here. 

The Centre continues to develop its facilities and services to be able to support many people, children, young people and adults/families to access the support they need.

We wanted to thank Cummins for the hard work they have put in to help us manage the woodland here at The Acorn Centre. We have a relatively new section of woodland, Jane’s Wood, this was planted in memory of Jane Dillon,older sister to our founder Katherine Dillon,who died tragically far too young. During her short life, Jane’s love of horses helped her face many challenges and brought her much comfort. 

Not only does this serve as a living breathing memorial to Jane, but it is also a really beautiful, quiet and private space to explore difficult feelings and express emotions for all of our children, young people and adults too particularly those that have suffered bereavement. 

Walking through this space or simply taking the time to sit on a bench allows every individual who visits,  time and space to feel able to talk about their experiences, share memories and morn their loss, whilst feeling supported.
