Tafale PEAUA

For Sione.

I’m running 40km this October to raise funds for the estimated 1 in 40 Australians on the autism spectrum!

I am an Autism mum.  My son Sione is 5 years old with Level 3 ASD. For the month of October which also happens to be my birthday month I will walking / running to raise awareness for not only the ASD community but for my son Sione Taufa Peaua.

Increased awareness and understanding means more people than ever are being diagnosed as Autistic – connecting more people to the support they need to thrive throughout their lives. But it also means services are being stretched further than ever before - with many children left on long wait lists at critical times in their development.

I have joined Run for autism to raise funds so more Autistic Australians can access the life-changing assessments, autism-specific education, specialist therapies and adult community services they need to create their own unique brilliance!

Any contribution, large or small, will help create a more inclusive future for Australia’s Autistic community.

Thank you so much!
