I've raised £100 to raise money for Cumbria Autism Family Support Project. Supporting and advising families in the county who have children with autism.”
Organised by Zoe Rigg
We are organising a Charity Truck Run being held during World Autism Week 2019. We are raising money for Cumbria Autism Family Support Project (part of Carlisle Mencap), which helps to support and advise families in the county with children who have an autism diagnosis.
Our son has taught us so much since his diagnosis last year at age 3, and we are very much learning on the job!! Sadly, we have had numerous negative experiences when out in public, and because of this we feel passionate about educating people about what autism is and some of the difficulties that individuals and their families can face.
