Team Autism Home Heroes

The coronavirus outbreak has seen thousands of our supporters getting creative to raise funds, to help us keep supporting autistic people and their families. With events big and small being cancelled, all charities have seen big losses of vital funds - but our Home Heroes are helping us in so many brilliant ways! Some of their stories are below. We'd love for you to join in too and become a Team Autism Home Hero!
