Raising money for

TreeHouse

Charity Registration No. 1063184

Autism affects 1 in every 100 children. That means that every week, 115 of the babies born in the UK are likely to go on to receive a diagnosis of autism.

Children with autism have profound difficulties with communication, imagination and social skills. Parents of children with autism are told that education is the only thing proven to unlock the potential of their children, offering them a better future. However there is a dire lack of both professionals with autism-specific training and specialist school places.

TreeHouse exists to transform through education the lives of children with autism and the lives of their families. With your help we can educate children, support parents, train professionals and influence policymakers.

My story

Me and 2 of my oldest friends that I met at school (Matt Barraclough and Lee Cogger) have decided, against our better judgement, to run the Royal Parks Half Marathon for a very worthy cause, Treehouse. God help us! While Lee has managed to maintain a marathon-runner's physique, its fair to say that myself and Matt have not, making this particularly challenging/life-threatening for us.

We are being spurred on by my sister, Vicky, who is the Director of Fundraising and Marketing at Treehouse, a charity that campaigns for better education for autistic children.

TreeHouse was founded in 1997 by parents of children with autism and today they run a school for children and young people with autism. In addition to this, TreeHouse undertakes policy and parliamentary work and research to ensure autism is a national priority, supports parents to campaign locally and offers training and consultancy on autism education.

So please help us achieve our joint goal of raising £1,050! 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.

Please dig deep and donate now!
