Story

<p>This June I'll be cycling my way from London Town to Paris across 300 miles of glorious countryside with the guys from work <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a title="dtcstudio" href="http://dtcstudio.co.uk">dtcstudio</a></span>&nbsp;</p> <p>Before I set off I need to raise a considerable amount for my chosen charity and my motivation for doing this is my step-brother Scotty. He's an exciting person to be around, passions for Nintendo DS and Sonic the Hedgehog are just some of the things that make him unique. For him, living with autism is a way of life. Last year he turned 18 and was able to move out of home and into his own flat. He loves it, and with the help of supported living he's able to develop everyday skills such as cooking a good chicken dinner. Relieving the need for continued family care and providing freedom to those affected is just one of many things Autism West Midlands do which is why I've chosen to raise money for their work and hopefully raise more awareness about autism.</p> <p>Please help by sponsoring me as much as you can afford.</p> <p>Thank you.</p> <p>Sam</p>
