Anyone who knows me - knows I love to travel. However while this trip is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, the point is to raise money for children with autism. Hence I am covering the costs of all my flights, accomodation, meals, etc. All the money I raise will go directly to the charities:
70% to the Newick House School
Newick House is a Community Special School for pupils with learning difficulties and associated special needs. My colleague Kevin's son Jamie has Asperger’s Syndrome and a number of other special needs. He is 11 and has been at Newick House School for two years.
30% to the National Autistic Society.
The National Autistic Society (NAS) exists to champion the rights and interests of all people with autism to ensure that they and their families receive quality services appropriate to their needs.
