Story

THANK YOU EVERYONE for your donations!!                                                ACORNS needs YOU!

Please keep them coming if you possibly can                        Every pound makes such a difference                               

I'm thrilled with everyone's kind donations and so impressed that I've smashed my target. 

My boy Hawk has just told me that if we get to £400 he's going to join me with his very own doggy pumpkin look. He's currently searching ebay for the latest in dog-walk Halloween fashion. Ohhhh, this is going to be embarrassing 


You'll be in for a treat if I raise £200 sponsorship. I promise to dye my hair Acorn's orange,get my pumpkin on and live as a pumpkin for the day,including visiting public places and carrying out everyday tasks in character.

Personally I'd rather you didnt donate and I wont have to look like a total idiot. But if you'd like to see me make a fool of myself and get me back for any horrid things I may have done in the past, or thank me for being Saint Diane then please donate to our fabulous and precious charity. 

When donating please make a suggestion for what my character's name should be. 

The day will be recorded for proof and future ridicule by Pumkin McPumkinface's daughter, Little Squash Amy.

Social distancing will be maintained throughout the day by the voluminous inflatable size of the pumpkin costume. 

It's entirely voluntary whether you donate or not but just bear in mind Halloween is approaching ; )

Trick or treat!!!
