Aston Villa players visited Acorns Children’s Hospice this week to help spread some Easter cheer.

John McGinn, Jacob Ramsey and Leon Bailey spoke to children, families and staff, posed for pictures, signed autographs and handed out Easter eggs at the hospice.

Reflecting on the visit, Ramsey said: "We've come here to give the kids some Easter eggs and our cards, it's been good to put smiles on their faces for a good cause and a good day."
