Autistic Children and Carers Together is a parent-led support group for autistic children and their families in Sheffield. We run weekly activity groups, provide support to parents and carers, and run day trips and family outings.

Story

Hello - I'm going to try to run 26.2 miles on April 26th and I'd like to raise a few bob for a local group ACCT who do great work supporting families with Asperger's and autism. Years ago I was a volunteer with them for a very brief spell - I wasn't that good at it and was more stressed at the time than I realised. So this fundraising is my way of saying thank you to them for invaluable advice to us as parents and for fantastic clubs and activities for young people with autism.  They are a small local charity who don't get much funding or have a flashy marketing budget. You are all generous people and will have your own personal favourite charities but if can donate to ACCT every penny will be gratefully received and wisely spent.

I'll round this off by saying thanks to DY at ACCT for great advice 5 years ago, to MB&E for the best B&B in town on marathon weekend, and to BT&H for the confidence boosting and for shoving me out the door for bleak midwinter runs.  Most of all, huge thanks to you for taking the time to read this and donate to this amazing group!! 

THANK YOU!!!

Adele :-)
