I’m joining the movement to Run for Autism. But I need your help.

Why am I running 70km this October? Because 70% of Autistic people experience mental health challenges.

I’m running 70km to stand in support of a more inclusive world — one where Autistic Australians have the opportunity to thrive, access the support they need, and participate meaningfully in life without having to miss out.

Everyone knows this year has been incredibly hard for Ashy, and I’ve made that loud and clear. Seeing the challenges firsthand has made me even more passionate about raising awareness and supporting better access to autism-specific services and mental health support.

Up to 95% of Autistic individuals have at least one co-occurring condition, which can add significant challenges to everyday life and have a lasting impact on wellbeing and self-image as people grow and develop.

That’s why I’m taking on this challenge throughout October.

Please donate and show your support. Your donation will help provide early diagnosis, autism-specific education, and critical research into the mental health challenges experienced by Autistic people — helping them access the support they need to realise their different brilliant®.

Every donation, big or small, will mean so much to me and help make those 70km feel a little more worthwhile. Do it for Ashy 🫶🏼

Donate now and help me go the distance. ❤️

Thank you for your support!
