Story
Helping individuals with autism and their families get the help they need. The Autism Directory provides an online UK directory signposting to resources & support available for individuals and families living with autism. They provide a Help Line and support with Benefits, PIP, Education, Diagnosis & more. They run Employment Programs helping adults with autism into work (over 65% of their own staff are on the spectrum) and provide training courses for organisations to understand autism. They also run Live Autism Shows annually in Wales.
Those of you who know me will know this challenge wont be easy but with nearly a year to prepare I really want to be able to raise much needed funds to support the work of this charity. Many of you will know that this cause is close to our hearts and the difficulties we have faced to get the support that we have needed over the past few years. Our boy suffers with sensory overload, OCD and terrible anxiety and really needs people to understand and give him a chance. Many of you know that he sees the world in pictures and has taken some wonderful photographs that give us insight into his world. I am hoping we can support each other to the top and he'll get the opportunity to take some from the top of Wales.
