Story

On April 7th 2024 I completed the London Landmarks Half Marathon in 2:25:42. Thank you to everyone who sponsored me to raise such an amazing amount of money for such an important cause.

As most of you know I have 3 girls,  they are all autistic although only 1 is currently diagnosed. I have experienced first hand how difficult it can be to get autism assessed and diagnosed especially in girls.  And then the battle continues for support. Autistic Girls Network raises awareness of how autistic girls are often missed as criteria for diagnosis is often based on typical male traits. 

About the charity

We are a small registered charity supporting autistic girls and women and campaigning for earlier diagnosis. We have a large, engaged Facebook group, run face to face groups and offer training for education, health and social care professionals, parents and parent carer forums and corporates.
