Our volunteers give SO MUCH to deliver a holiday for disabled young people every summer... and then in the autumn they're out running, baking, climbing and mobilising - all so we can pay for another incredible holiday next year! Please join in & support if you can!

#AskingAutistics #Autism Hi Folks, putting the word out for any UK based autistic women who also have a learning disability, to be a paid advisor in an advisory group for a PhD study, looking into case law, sexual violence and autistic women. DM me to discuss further. Thanks!
