Having been diagnosed with breast cancer this summer, I wanted to use my situation to support the places in our community, that are a lifeline to many of us.

My youngest son was diagnosed with autistic spectrum disorder 3 years ago.  This meant having to learn very quickly about autism, having to build up a completely new support network, and adapt to the challenges in our life as a family.  The Braintree Autism Support Group at the Archer Community Centre, has been an invaluable source of information, and hub of practical support.  They've held information days with groups like the National Autistic Society, and other people and organizations that support adults and children with special needs.  Future projects are to include setting up special interest groups like arts & crafts, music, woodwork and photography, for teens and adults on the autistic spectrum. These projects rely heavily on volunteers and funding, so any donations , big or small, would be thankfully received.

Please help me support them by donating to Nell's Hair Raizing Event.  Any
