I'm walking for......my beautiful younger sister, Lucy

I will be walking for my amazing 13 year old sister, Lucy. From a young age my sister had struggled with the symptoms of autism and has only been pushed for a diagnosis. Without any support, my sister has struggled in school and experiencing anxiety in anything that is outside of her comfort zone. It is upsetting to my family that she won’t get any support during her school years due to the 5 year waiting list for a diagnosis. She is such a talented, caring and intelligent young girl and i would hate to see anyone struggling with autism or simply the symptoms of autism to go through the same things she has gone through. so i will be walking to support anyone struggling with autism and needs that extra bit of help!

I’m raising funds for autism! Please sponsor me today! I’m taking part in the Walk for Autism challenge. I’ll be walking 10,000 steps a day from 26 March to 2 April. Please sponsor me. Anything helps . 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.
