Case Study: Acorns Children’s Hospice improves employee wellbeing and engagement with Winningtemp

Planting the Seeds of Wellbeing Today, for a Stronger Tomorrow

Acorns Children’s Hospice, which provides care for children with life-limiting conditions, faced significant challenges in supporting its staff's wellbeing, especially during the pandemic. The organization needed to understand and improve its internal culture and address employee concerns without causing discomfort. To tackle this, Director of People & Culture Matt Bullock implemented the Winningtemp employee engagement platform to gain real-time, anonymous insights into how their teams were feeling.

Using Winningtemp's diagnostic tools and regular surveys, Acorns was able to identify specific areas of concern, particularly within its care delivery teams, despite an overall high organizational score. The data provided by Winningtemp became an invaluable resource for shaping a new, cohesive leadership culture and informing the organization's learning and development strategy. This allowed Acorns to focus its improvements based on direct employee feedback, fostering a culture of constant listening and positive change.
