Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.Thank

My family and I are trying to raise funds to hold a Christmas party and all the proceeds will be going to the National Autistic Society.

My name is Brian and I have set up this page on behalf of my 13 year old son Connor who is Autistic and wants to give something back and raise awareness. Autism is a lifelong, developmental disability that affects how a person communicates with and relates to other people, and how they experience the world around them. Having Autism is a daily struggle and it effects Connor in many different ways as he struggles with the world around him. Connor is a polite well mannered young boy, he is just different and by different I mean quirky and has his own ways of coping with his disability. There are good days which is great but there are also bad days and by bad days I mean meltdowns where he has an overload of information and he cannot cope with the world around him. Connor does not do well with change and has to stick to a routine as it keeps him focused.On the plus side having Autism does not have to be a bad thing as Connor has a lot of strengths and is very intelligent. Maths is one of his strong points so we never need a calculator lol and getting to places is a doddle as Connors other strengths are buses and trains he knows when they come and what time and what stop or platform we need to be on so when going on holiday we never get lost as he is like a map of Britain. So there you have it this is Connors story that he wanted to share with you.

So any donation how ever big or small would be really appreciated as it is going to a good cause and will help raise awareness about Autism plus you will be making one 13 year old boy really happy in supporting his cause.

Many thanks.
