Hearing words like 'autism', or 'learning difficulty' can be devastating for parents. Seeing someone you care about affected by stroke is devastating. B.I.R.D. offers a therapy programme to achieve their true potential. Your support will help more families seeking our support.

Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.</p> <p>All went well yesterday at the Bell Tower, a bit apprehensive sitting on the edge at the top but once started it was ok. A huge thank-you to all who have donated a brilliant total which will help many families.</p> <p>Now -what next!</p> <p>In just three months my eldest son, who&nbsp;has Aspergers (a form of Autism)&nbsp;has changed dramatically for the better thanks to the incredible work of this charity.&nbsp; So I only think it right that I should try and give something back.</p> <p>Please donate generously as I have never abseiled before and will no doubt be a tad nervous 170ft above the&nbsp;shoppers at The Trafford Centre.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>So think of me on Sunday 25th September 2011 at 10am and please dig deep if you can.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>&nbsp;</p>
