Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.&nbsp;</p> <p>I decided to set myself a challenge this year and saw&nbsp;an advert in the local paper for people interested in trekking in the foot hills of the Pyrenees for five consecutive days in September to raise money for Autism Jersey.&nbsp;</p> <p>Since being made aware of autism&nbsp;and the effects it has on the&nbsp;sufferers and their family I have always been interested in the work undertaken by such organisations as Autism Jersey.&nbsp;</p> <p>So having identified my challenge,&nbsp;I committed to the trek.&nbsp; Since then&nbsp;I have met some wonderful people who do so much to support people in the community with their committment and dedication to Autism Jersey.&nbsp; I feel priviledged to join them on the trek and I want to be able to raise as much money as possible to help Autism Jersey towards their goal of funding a permanent base in Jersey.&nbsp;</p> <p>I would appreciate any help you can give me in acheiving my fundraising goal.&nbsp; This will give me so much inspiration and help me to complete my challenge.</p> <p>Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure.
