The Furnish's are running 100km this October for the 1 in 40 Australians on the autism spectrum.
We're running 100km this October to raise funds for the estimated 1 in 40 Australians on the autism spectrum!
This is a topic that's very dear to our family and we are so beyond proud of our boy, Harri who is non verbal and also Autistic. This isn't something either of us have done before, but now understanding just how important Autism awareness and understanding is, we believe this is a great way we can help raise funds and spread awareness for others who have been in our situation or even for those who haven't, but would love to be there to support those who need it most.
Increased awareness and understanding means more people than ever are being diagnosed as Autistic – connecting more people to the support they need to thrive throughout their lives. But it also means services are being stretched further than ever before - with many children left on long wait lists at critical times in their development.
Any contribution will help create a more inclusive future for Australia’s Autistic community and will in turn, support our loved ones helping them be the best they can be!
Thank you so much, Hollie & James
You guys are so inspirational!
