We're celebrating World Autism Acceptance Week 2022  26th March - 3rd April and the 10 year anniversary of our Aspens' dedicated family support team with the Au-Some 10 for 10 Virtual Challenge!

This year our Family Support Team are celebrating 10 years of providing their much-needed support to families and individuals across the south east. The Family Support Team provides a lifeline to parents, carers and siblings, who are living with a young person or adult on the autism spectrum or with complex needs through a range of services including support groups, workshops, activities, an advice chatline and one-to-one support.

To enable the team to reach more people and expand their services they urgently need more funds and this is where you can help by taking up our Au-Some 10 for 10 Virtual Challenge!

We’re asking you to challenge yourself to doing 10 of any activity during Autism Acceptance Week from 26^th March - 3^rd April 2022.  

Over the week you could challenge yourself to do:

• Get physical! Walk, run, jog, cycle, swim, hop or skip for 10 mins, 10km, 10 miles each day during the week. You choose the level needed to make it a challenge for yourself.
• Why not give yourself a creative challenge?! Bake 10 cakes, knit 10 socks or create 10 pieces of art using any medium you like during the week.
• Challenge your grey matter! Learn 10 new facts on autism, get 10 questions right in 10 different quiz’s or complete 10 crosswords during the week.

The possibilities are endless, just choose a challenge that suits you and have fun whilst raising much needed funds which will make a real difference to the lives of families who live with young people and adults on the autism spectrum.
