Cornwall branch
Welcome to the Cornwall branch of the National Autistic Society, which has been up and running since 2003. Our branch is run by a group of volunteers, most of whom have had autism touch their lives in one way or another. We are always keen to involve new people, whether they choose to become volunteers or participants in our fundraising activities.

If you are keen to make a difference to the lives of autistic people and their families and to improve the understanding and acceptance of autism then please get in contact with us.
We would welcome anyone looking to volunteer to help us continue with our fundraising, so we can provide more resources and activities for people across Cornwall. If you would like more information please email: cornwall.branch@nas.org.uk
We are also currently looking for a volunteer branch secretary to help answer emails.
Awareness means you know I'm here. Acceptance means you are happy to see me.

How to donate to our branch
If would like to donate to the National Autistic Society's Cornwall branch then please do. Your money would be greatly appreciated and would go towards supporting local autistic people. For example, we are currently talking to local libraries regarding supplying them with books on Pathological Demand Avoidance.
Ben Nicholas has kindly agreed to fundraise on behalf of our branch under his 'Legs 4 Hire' scheme. He will be taking part in the Great Bristol 10k run on Sunday 25th September. Under the scheme a branch pays an entry fee, Ben then takes part in the event on their behalf and then the branch keep all the fundraised money at the end of the event.
