A Worcester school has raised more than £500 for Acorns Children's Hospice.

Jamie-Lee Docherty and Ewan Wilson, pupils at Cherry Orchard Primary School, Worcester, handed over £532 in donations to Acorns Community Fundraising Manager, Mandie Fitzgerald.

The money was raised over Christmas.

Headteacher Mike Painter said: "We are delighted to support such a caring and vitally important charity, particularly as it is close to the school and serves members of its community.

"The generosity of our parents never ceases to amaze me and we will continue to fundraise for the hospice in the future."
