Ziggy Blue
My motivation for joining the run for autism is my son Ziggy. Zig was diagnosed with ASD level 2 and GDD a few years ago. His diagnosis has helped with therapies and getting in touch with support.I’m running 70km this October for the 1 in 70 Australians on the autism spectrum.
Did you know that autism is estimated to affect over 350,000 Australians every day? For children, an early diagnosis is critical. It means more tailored support at home and school, so they can experience the joy of being a different brilliant.
Sadly, there are so many financially disadvantaged families who are currently on the waitlist for urgently needed autism assessments.
That’s why I’m taking on Run for autism. To help children access an early diagnosis, opening doors to specialised support services and giving them the best possible chance to shine!
Will you please support my run for autism by making a tax-deductible donation?
Any contribution, large or small, will help make a huge difference in the lives of families waiting on an autism diagnosis.
Thank you so much!

Good luck Luke, as you represent every parent, Uncle, Aunty, Grandparents, mother, father who have the most wonderful child in the world. Kids with autism are the most intelligent and forthright kids with unconditional love who give us joy and tears all rolled into one. As a proud Uncle of my beautiful nephew Hunter, I couldn't be prouder to support and love him as my own. You and Shaye are fantastic parents and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. Ratu
