Gemma, Charlene and Alannah are taking part in the Spectrum Colour Walk to raise autism awareness, acceptance and funds for the National Autistic Society. There are a number of autistic individuals in our family, including Gemma's son Joseph, who was diagnosed autistic at age four. Joseph is non-verbal, and has a severe learning disability and ADHD. Joseph is also wonderfully cheeky, gentle and usually a happy little boy.

National Autistic Society: We need you, more than ever, to support us so we can continue our work. Every penny raised by you, our amazing supporters, will help deliver our ambitious plans to transform our society into one that truly works for autistic people.
