Trial and Error on the Road to Greatness

Monday 2nd Feb

Hello there, my name is Dylan McConnell, and this year I’m taking part in Walk For Autism — not just as a fundraiser, but as someone who is proudly on the autism spectrum.

Like many autistic people, I’ve faced real struggles trying to find a workplace that truly fits me. Despite showing my creativity, passion, and dedication, I’ve often been rejected or overlooked. Those experiences have been frustrating, but they’ve also opened my eyes to a bigger issue: so many autistic people are still fighting just to receive fair opportunities and reasonable adjustments.

That’s why this walk matters to me. I want to get myself on the right track, yes — but I also want to help ensure the wider autism community gets the understanding, support, and respect it deserves.

Taking part in Walk For Autism is also part of my commitment to a healthier lifestyle, both physically and mentally. Staying active helps clear my mind, and this walk gives that effort a purpose that truly means something to me.

Thank you for supporting me, and for supporting the autism community. 

Thank you to my donors
