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

Who'd have thought that this little terror would be a potential Marathon runner.....Well, it's taken me nearly 32 years but I've decided to give it my best shot.

I need the help of my friends and family to raise the money for Treehouse. I went to visit the school just recently and was blown away - stories of children with autism who joined the school age 6 with no speech and ability to interact. Within a few years, they are communicating and playing with other children in the Treehouse playground and getting so much out of life.

It's very important to me to reach my target and and I know you all get several requests like mine to part with your hard earned cash, so thank you so much for giving.

Michelle
