Thank you to everyone who has supported World Autism Awareness Week.

29 March - 4 April 2021

It's been amazing seeing so many autistic people, their families, as well as schools and organisations, fundraising, sharing stories and helping people understand more about what it's like to be autistic. You can still take part by making a donation.

Why your help is more important than ever

The coronavirus pandemic has been particularly tough for many autistic people and their families. Services have closed and many people have been left stranded. The ever-changing guidelines and restrictions can be confusing to understand and extremely difficult to implement for autistic people with high support needs. 

Thanks to our supporters, we've been able to campaign to ensure autistic people's needs are taken into account by governments across the UK in these challenging times. Autistic people have been included in mask exemptions and have been given more opportunities to exercise. 

We've developed online resources for autistic people and increased the number of online social groups we run. There is still so much to do and we desperately need your help to continue this vital work. 

Pay in your money

The sooner you pay in your brilliant fundraising money, the sooner we can put it to good use helping to create a society that works for autistic people.

We're here to help you do the same this time around.
