Running for Natalia and for Autism Awareness. Help us reach our goal
Why we’re running for Autism 🧡#TeamNatalia🧡
We’re running this October for our daughter Natalia, who lives with Autism, ADHD, and a learning disability. Since she was just one, our family has been in and out of specialist appointments, facing daily challenges while trying to give her the support she needs. Natalia has a heart of gold, but she truly struggles with the realities of the world around her.
This run is our way of raising awareness and creating more support not just for Natalia, but for all Autistic Australians.
🧡 Why 70km? Because 70% of Autistic people face mental health challenges.
👟 And because Natalia inspires us to push further, Daniel and I are going that extra distance together we’ll reach 150km combined this month.
Your donation will help provide life changing assessments, autism-specific education, specialist therapies, and adult community services. Most importantly, it shows families like ours that they’re not alone.
Please support #TeamNatalia and help us run towards a more inclusive world where Autistic people have the opportunity to thrive.

Thank you, Dan, Hela, and especially Natalia, for sharing your story and helping raise awareness for such an important cause. Supporting our fellow neurospicy souls means celebrating the unique strengths and perspectives that come with neurodiversity. Your bravery in sharing inspires so many of us to be more understanding, more compassionate, and more open-hearted.
