Autism affects how a person communicates with, and relates to, other people. It also affects how they make sense of the world around them. Autistic people see, hear and feel the world differently to other people. Autism is a spectrum condition. All autistic people share certain difficulties, but being autistic will affect them in different ways.

There is no cure for Autism.

Both my little brother and sister have autism, and the most important thing I want from this, is for more people to be aware of what Autism is and to be less judgemental to the parents trying to calm down a scared, confused autistic child in the supermarket or wherever they may be.

All money raised will go to two charities: Spectrum & Me and The National Autistic Society.
