I want to do this because im autistic and there are thousands of other people on the autistic spectrum like me.
I also want to make more people aware in the UK of what autism is and how affects autistic people (e.g: many autistic people don't like loud noises like me or strong lights/strobing lights (at holiday venues).
This is what your money will help to do to families and autistic people in the uk:
£2.24 is the cost of sending an information pack to a worried parent of a child with autism who needs help finding out about autism, the support they can give and where to look for further help.
£7.50 could allow someone with autism who feels isolated and frustrated to speak to a Helpline Adviser, who is specially trained to give advice and support.
£12 could pay for one of their befrienders to spend an hour with someone who would like to make friends but doesn't know how.
I will be doing this between 30th March 2020 to the 5th April 2020 during National Autism Awareness Week in the UK.
