Fundraising for Ambitious about Autism
Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page. On the 6th September 2015 I will be cycling the 220miles from Manchester Velodrome to the Lea Valley Velodrome in London. All monies raised will go to Ambitious about Autism. I have paid for the entry fee so all donations will go direct to the charity.
About Autism
Autism is a lifelong developmental disability which affects 1 in 100 people in the UK. It affects the way a person communicates and how they experience the world around them.
Autism is described as a spectrum condition. This means that while people with autism – including Asperger’s Syndrome – share certain characteristics, they will be highly individual in their needs and preferences. Some people with autism are able to live relatively independent lives but others may face additional challenges – including learning disabilities – which affect them so profoundly that they need support in many areas.
Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
