I'm walking 10,000 steps a day for Autism Initiatives

Please donate 🙏 trying to raise £50 if possible x if you can help at all I’d really appreciate it. The reason why I’m doing this is because autism is a cause close to my heart, I have it myself and there is so much more to raise awareness about ❤️ 

Did you know?

Autistic people die around six years earlier than the general population, and autistic people who also have a learning disability die up to 15 years earlier.

Four out of five (80%) autistic adults report difficulty visiting a GP.

There are 2,050 autistic people and people with a learning disability in mental health hospitals in England, and 1,410 (69%) of these are autistic.

Only three in 10 (30%) autistic people are in employment, the lowest of any disability.

Almost three in four parents (74%) think their children’s school place doesn’t meet their needs.

A third of parents of children with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) had to use the legal system to get provision, yet 99% of tribunals find in parents’ favour.

As of September 2024, over 204,000 people were waiting for an autism assessment in England.

89% of people have been waiting for an assessment longer than the NICE recommended 13 weeks. Many wait years for a diagnosis.

I work in a home for learning disabilities so as well as doing this for me. I am doing it for all of the autistic people in the community❤️ so it’s not just for me it’s for them! 

Also… autism has no cure, we can find ways to support people with it but it’s a lifelong condition.
