Story

So having just about recovered from dragging myself 26.219 miles around London in 2014,  I'm back for round two!  Some may question my sanity following the fun I had last time, and to be honest I do too! 

Once again I've been lucky enough to get a ballot entry and so rather than running for a big organisation,  I'm lucky enough to be able to raise money for a much smaller charity that is very close to home. 

Last time, you wonderful people generously donated over £700 to the Romford Autistic Group Support.  This charity had it's council funding withdrawn in 2013,  it has since survived through a mix of generous donations and also the goodwill and selfless commitment of it volunteers and trustees.

About the charity

We are a non-funded Autism support group, based in Romford. We support families in Havering and parts of Essex, with children who have been diagnosed with ASD/Asperger's Syndrome or are awaiting diagnosis. Our main aim is to help parents and children, to deal with Autism in their lives in a positive way. We are a parent-lead group who will do all we can to support you on your journey ahead. We provide signposting, drop in sessions, and activities for the children when we have the funds to do so. We now rely solely on fundraising events, donations and membership fees. If you have any fundraising ideas or are willing to raise funds to keep our organisation going, it would be very much appreciated. To join, or for more information, call our office number (01708 564 871) or our mobile number (07760 169187) and we will get back to you as soon as we can. Thank you. www.rags-havering.org.uk
