The Aston Villa squad brought some Christmas cheer to the families at three Acorns hospices recently.
Led by head coach Dean Smith, the whole team spoke to children and their parents via video call from Bodymoor Heath.
In the heart-warming calls, the children at Acorns had the chance to chat to their favourite players, who have sent gifts to the hospice.
The children then sang ‘We Wish You A Merry Christmas’ to the squad.
Smith and his squad would usually visit the hospices of the club’s charity partner at this time of year, but that wasn’t possible due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
