After hearing the awful news of the theft of the F.A.C.T charity box in Hyde, I am trying to help replace the funds stolen from the box before we all settle down for Christmas.

Fact is a charity that has helped me for many years as my son has Autism. The charity has provided me and my family with support, days out and training in things like Makaton (a form of sign language so you can comunicate to your child) through some of the hardest steps in my sons life. They are a modern and understanding charity who really do make a different to families lives. Especially over Christmas.

If you can donate anything at all I know it will be appreciated by the many families across Tameside that FACT has and continues to help.

Thank You.
