Please help me in raising funds for The National Autistic Society. 

I'm taking part in their London to Paris Cycle Ride in April 2006.  Crystal Palace to the Eiffel Tower - 300km !!!

My youngest son was diagnosed with an Autistic Spectrum Disorder in 2001 and through the National Autistic Society's help and support I have gained a greater understanding of Autism and invaluable knowledge and techniques to be able to help and encourage my sons development.

Many thanks to the Vodafone UK Foundation who are matching all donations, and the Kennet Leisure Centre for free use of the gym and pool for some extra training.
