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

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

I am doubling the 70%; 140km for the month! 

As a Mum of an Autistic son, 7 years old, everyday he amazes me, surprises me, makes me laugher, cry tears of joy (and at times frustration) and fills my heart with so much love. He makes me a more patient person, open and less judgmental of others. All of these gifts from one child; I imagine a world for him that accepts each and every Autistic person and embraces the gifts they give to this world. 

I’m running towards a more inclusive world where Autistic Australians have the opportunity to thrive. 

Please donate now and show your support to my fundraiser. You’ll be helping more Autistic people in Australia access life-changing assessments, autism-specific education, specialist therapies and adult community services. 

You’ll also give me the motivation I need to log my kilometres as I go the distance throughout October. Donate now to show your support. 

No matter how big or small every donation, from the bottom of my heart, is greatly appreciated. 

Thank you!
