Sky diving is something I've always wanted to do so I thought I would take this opportunity to raise some money for a family to close to my heart and hundreds of other families who are fighting to find treatment for many other children in Sam's position.

Here is a little message from the Carrick family who started this incredible foundation, hoping to make a difference:

"As a family touched by autism, we set up Ausome Foundation on February 18th 2015 through Foundation Scotland to help fund targeted research to shed light on autistic spectrum and related disorders.

Ausome Foundation is working with a dream team of genetic scientists at Augusta University, USA who are using the latest emerging technologies to help identify genes involved in autism and developmental delay."

The progress made already by the foundation is astounding but we're not finished yet. Every single penny counts so no matter how big or small your donation is, please know it is hugely appreciated.

Big kisses
