London Landmarks Half Marathon 2024 · 7 April 2024 ·

Autistic Girls Network is the only UK charity dedicated solely to autistic girls and young women operating nationally. We provide safe peer support groups, resources and advocacy to reduce isolation, improve wellbeing and ensure autistic girls are understood, valued and able to flourish.

Story

On the 7th April 2024 I will be running in the London Landmarks Half Marthon in aid of the Autistic Girls Network. It is a charity close to my heart given that, in my hard won experience, they understand far better than most the challenges faced by parents of autistic girls and have helped me understand far better an autistic child's needs.

They have given me a much better insight to the issues facing parents and children on the autistic spectrum than any other organisation, and they have been a welcome relief after years of ill informed "specialist" help.

I know times are extremely tight out there at the moment but if you could spare a little change for me to huff and puff around the streets of London i would be extremely greatful.

Finally I want to add the link below to the AGN white paper which i found the most useful and insightful thing i have read on the topic of autism in girls and hope it might help others too.
