Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page,

My name is Henry. I am autistic and I attend MAIN every Thursday after school. MAIN is a charity aiming to develop new ways of supporting and encouraging children and people who are autistic, neurodivergent, awaiting diagnosis, have a learning disability and or complex need.

MAIN want to create a world where everyone is empowered to reach their full potential, embraced for their uniqueness and included fully in all aspects of society.

MAIN urgently need to raise £25,000 to create a safe quiet space for children in heightened emotional states.

The Quiet Room will be a calm, safe and low-stimulation space designed to support the emotional regulation of the children and young people who attend MAIN.

I love learning about roads and postcodes and, over the course of three days during the month of August, I am going to walk the length of some of the longest roads in Middlesbrough. Here are my routes:

- Ladgate Lane (Bluebell Hotel to Normanby High Street)

- Marton Road (Odeon to Miller and Carter)

- Linthorpe/Acklam Road (Middlesbrough Railway Station to Cherry Hill Garden Centre)

I would love to raise some money for MAIN towards their new quiet room. If you would like to help, please donate to my Just Giving page and I will post some photos along the way!

Thanks for reading,

Henry xxx
