We want to say thank you to each and every one of you for donating. Nate is thrilled to bits and I’m so touched by all the love shown to him. Thank you! Thank you! 

Nate is facing a sensory challenge of shaving his head. He wants to raise awareness around autism, money for The Autism Directory, and see what his head looks like bald. 

Diagnosed with high functioning autism at 6, Nate faces challenges every day that can be attributed to autism. He also enjoys a number of ‘super powers’ because of it too. 

He’s amazing at maths, has a memory that holds more information about dinosaurs, Fortnite, footballers and Star Wars than I ever knew existed. 

He’s funny, kind and honest, (maybe a bit too honest!!) and we want to show the world that autism can be brilliant as well as challenging. 

Helping individuals with autism and their families get the help they need. The Autism Directory provides an online UK directory signposting to resources & support available for individuals and families living with autism. They provide a Help Line and support with Benefits, PIP, Education, Diagnosis & more. They run Employment Programs helping adults with autism into work (over 65% of their own staff are on the spectrum) and provide training courses for organisations to understand autism. They also run Live Autism Shows annually in Wales.
