Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.
NEW Update 20/12

So today is the last of our Santa Runs and will be our biggest - taking part at Dobwalls school. All the runs have been brilliant and the parents have been really supportive.

Upton Cross raised £80 - Pensilva £52 - St Cleer £63.

Thank you for you support so far

We have both been touched by what impact autism can have.

Craig’s story. My nephew was diagnosed with autism nearly 2 decades ago and is living proof that you CAN live a normal life. He struggled as a toddler to fit in and at the time it was not understood as well as it is today.

He went to a normal school with a specialist unit. Did brilliantly and is now two years into an equine management course.

He is turned out to be a lovely well mannered adult enjoying and excelling in horse riding. He loves to teach younger children about looking after horses and how to ride.

He is a real success story.

Oli’s Story

My daughter who is 10 yrs old has autism and I see first hand the effects it can have for her living with the condition.

The book “The reason I jump”explains a lot about how she views life. She gets regular support at school and as a family we get home help in understanding and dealing with the issue.

Any donation would help support families like mine.
