Let me introduce myself - I am Cwtch The Bear - the face of AP Cymru The Autism Charity! I love being part of the community, arranging fundraising events, providing school assemblies and working with organisations across the UK who aim to become more accessible for autistic people and their families.

This is my plea for your help Did you know that if you are working from home you could still help us to raise vital funds for your favourite charity... hopefully, this would be US! Did you know that the average collection pot holds around £45??? Just one pot could fund three families to receive a personalised one-to-one support session with a senior member of our staff. During and following the diagnosis process there is no direct support provided, that is why our Charity was created - to plug this gap! This is why the direct support that we provide has been described as a VITAL LIFELINE to the autistic person, their family and their friends. Over the following weeks and months we possibly wont see as many of these collection pots as we take less visits to our favourite shops, bars, hairdressers etc. Just a few coins here and there would really add up for our Charity. So, I have decided to set up a Virtual Charity Pot and would love for you to help me to fill it up.

Perhaps you could donate the cost of one of your favourite coffees or a chocolate bar? Once this pot becomes full we could maybe start another pot? If you want to get involved and maybe set up your own virtual fundraiser - please send us an email enquiries@apcymru.org.uk

If you need help, advice or support then please get in touch today 02920 810786.
