Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
Perth Autism support had to suspend services from friday 18th August 2017, as they have no secured funding to keep up their core costs. The cost is £120,000 per year.
However, the Scottish government, Perth and Kinross council and NHS Tayside have stepped in with some much needed funds which has allowed Perth Autism Support to run services as normal- for now....As yet though, No long term, permanent funding has been secured.
This is why i have set up this page, if anyone is able to donate anything at all to help PAS run services as normal until permenat funding is secured for them- It would be greatly appreciated by many!
*Please be aware that by donating, these funds are unrestricted- which means if PAS are unable to continue their services the funds may be used to pay bills, staff etc. *
I have two boys with autism and PAS has been a lifeline for us. Helping with school meetings, advice, chats. Fun and clubs that my boys can go to where the staff are trained and fully understand Autism, without this organisation my boys have no out of school activities to attend, we as a family have no support or anywhere to turn for advice. This scares me!!
When my boys were diagnosed (on seperate occasions) with Autism, I was overwhelmed, I had no understanding. We struggled with schooling, with the next steps, with everything. There is no help out there available, your child needs therapies but you go on waiting lists. The families of Perth and Kinross NEED this organisation. No doubt about it.
Please dig deep, anything you can donate at all is greatly appreciated.
