The charity choice  - as a group we have seen the affect that autism has on the family, so we chose to support the National Autistic Society because they champion the rights and interests of all people with autism and aim to provide support to individuals with autism and their families.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

As a group we would like to thank everybody for their support - whatever form it takes.
