Story

My daughter Isabelle was diagnosed with Autism (ASD) & Global Developmental Delay just after her 2nd birthday, she was non-verbal, unable to communicate in any way, she didn't give eye contact and just wanted to play by herself away from everyone else, she was lost in her own world. Her future was a huge question mark & I didn't know where to turn. Thankfully I came across the charity Puzzle Centre, the work they do for young children with Autism is amazing, Isabelle has come along way since her 2nd birthday. At age 6 she can now communicate using pictures & Makaton Sign Language, she is starting to vocalise letters & words,  her eye contact is brilliant and she is very sociable, choosing to play with others instead of being by herself. My little girl is amazing & so is Puzzle Centre.  I believe all families with a child like Isabelle should have access to these services.  Puzzle Centre relies on donations to fund their places and the waiting list is huge.  Please help another child by donating to this fantastic cause.
