Total 104,396 steps

My goal 100000 steps

Day 8 🙌🏼

The last day of our walk for autism and another 10k+ steps logged taking us over our 100,000 steps target for the week!😁

We did it!!! 💪🏼

Day 7 👟

Today we walked from Bevendean to Brighton pier and back, clocked up a good amount of steps again with Grandad 💚 my legs are feeling it today but we have less than 10,000 steps to go to hit our target of 100,000 and still got tomorrow to go! I’m so happy that we are going to smash our steps target!! 💪🏼 

We received a few more donations yesterday too, thankyou so much to everyone who has supported us this week 🫶🏼

Day 6 🌊

Today was a big day!! I managed to get over 20,000 steps in today. We walked from Brighton Marina to King Alfred Hove and then back. Chanie and Theo’s grandad came along too, thankyou!! The sun was shining which made it a lovely walk ☀️

Day 5🍦

Today we completed the Easter Trail at Devils Dyke with some more family. It’s so nice that everyone is supportive and wants to join us on our walks. 

The sun was shining today and Theo managed almost 2 hours walking before getting tired! We decided to call it a day but stopped for an ice cream first ☺️

Day 4 🍃

Today we met up with some family including Nanny Tracie who is also doing Walk for Autism and we made the most of the sunshine and tackled Cissbury Ring. It was a very windy day but the views were so worth the big hill to get to the top and Theo enjoyed rolling down the hills 😂

Day 3 💪🏼

Busy day today so we didn’t go anywhere nice to walk but managed to get 10,000 steps in for today still. 💪🏼

Day 2 ☀️

Today was a much better day weather wise and we went to Stanmer Park and did the woodland trail this evening.Theo loved the mud and seeing the cows. We did over 11,0000 steps, making up for yesterdays short fall 🙌🏼

Day 1 ☔️

Day 1 was tough, the rain was pouring and although we managed to get out to walk around Bevendean down, I fell short of 10k steps today (9390). Theo was tired so we headed back home early to dry out. We will make up for it on Day 2 💪🏼

Theo has hit his £500 target ⭐️

We are beyond grateful to have raised over £500! Which means he will be receiving a gold medal once we compete the challenge 🏅

Thankyou so much to everyone who has donated. We are starting our steps on Weds 26th - just 3 days to go x

1 WEEK TO GO...💪🏼

Just 1 week away from the first day of the challenge. Eeeek! 

We are so grateful for everyone's support so far, Thank you so much. 💚

Theo & I have been out and about walking and to get ourselves ready and we managed almost 6miles (just under 13,000 steps) yesterday before it got too dark. 👟

Fancy taking part? 🧩

It's not too late to join our team 'Theo & Friends' and take part in the Walk For Autism yourself. 

10,000+ steps a day across 8 days... and if you raise just £20 in sponsorship you will get a t-shirt in time to wear for the challenge.

Do something amazing this spring and help to spread autism acceptance and understanding. 

£500 reached - 2 weeks to go!! ⭐️

Between us and Theo's Nanny Tracie, who is also taking part in the challenge, we have raised over £500!!! 
Thank you so much :) 

Practise makes perfect 👟

Theo and I got some practice steps in this weekend and we managed 26,584 steps over Saturday and Sunday. 💪🏼 
With just over 2 weeks to go until the challenge starts we are feeling confident we can do 100,000 for challenge week 🤞🏼

50% to target 🫶🏼

We have passed the 50% mark of our fundraising target this weekend!! Thankyou so so so much to everyone who has helped us reach this point.  

22 days to go 👟

Thankyou ❤️

Thankyou so much to everyone who has donated already. We are so grateful to have you supporting us. 

Please do share our page if you can, I would love to hit our fundraising target and ensure Theo gets his medal once the challenge is complete 🏅

We are 1 month away now and Theo is super excited to get going and have lots of outdoor adventures while we complete our challenge. 👟🍃


I’m walking for my son Theo💙

Hello - Theo and I are raising funds for autism! 

We are going to be taking part in the Walk for Autism Challenge 2024, making the most of the lighter evenings and nicer weather to complete our steps. 

We’ll be aiming to walk 100,000 steps together between 26th March and 2nd April. Please sponsor us if you can! Any help is gratefully appreciated xx

2nd April is World Autism Acceptance Day and marks the start of Autism Awareness Week running 2nd - 8th April. 

If you have any suggestions/recommendations for great walking locations around Sussex please send them our way :) 

Walk for Autism is a fundraising challenge run by Autism Initiatives Group. Autism Initiatives Group is working towards a world where every person on the autism spectrum has the support they need to thrive, every opportunity to fulfil their potential and a supportive, inclusive community to live in.
