Fundraising for Autism Together
Story
EDIT: Thank you all so much for the donations we have received so far.
Because we've done so well with so long to go I've increased the target to £1000. Let's smash it!!
Charlie and I are raising money for the Autism Together Future 50 appeal!
On 1st June 2019 we will be taking part in this year's Chester Gung-Ho - a 5k course with 10 inflatable obstacles. We're already in training and looking to smash the record for a team comprised of people called Carl and Charlie based in Wallasey (https://begung-ho.co.uk/).
About the charity:
Autism Together is an amazing local charity and a specialist provider of support to individuals with autism, Autism Together recognises that each person has a right to live their life as they determine.
Myself, Hannah, Charlie (right in the picture), Oliver (centre) and Chloe (left) are a family of 5 who live with Autism every day. Oliver would never have gotten to where he is today if it wasn't for the tireless work of the amazing people working in all the charities, agencies and education systems across the Wirral.
Autism Together is one of these charities but with the huge ambition to create a new state of the art autism specific unit which will have accommodation as well as consultation and therapy rooms. This will allow in-patient assessment services and a diagnostic centre for children and adults. If you don't know much about autism, let me tell you that this will be a really impressive facility and we are lucky that anyone has such an ambition in our area. It is in investment for us as Oliver will no doubt make use of these facilities in the future.
For more information about this then take a look at the website:

Dig deep everyone - it is for an amazing cause! You will see that I have set an ambitious target to raise, but in reality I think we'll smash it since we know so many lovely people!
