Join us and fundraise this World Autism Acceptance Month

We will be kicking things off on Tuesday 2 April 2025 (World Autism Awareness Day) right through the month of April. We'd love you to Walk 5k this April and fundraise to support autistic people and their families.

Walk 5k this April

At home, at school or on holiday...walk your 5km your own way!

Spectrum Colour Walk

Back and bigger! Join us in London on Saturday 5th April.

Fundraise your way

Already got plans? Here's how to get started.

Why get involved next year?

Autistic people face discrimination and barriers across all sectors of society – in the health and social care systems, in education, in employment, and everywhere in between. It is crucial that autistic people, and their families and carers, can access tailored information, guidance and support to overcome those barriers, along with opportunities to explore their interests, develop skills and build friendships for fulfilled lives.

There are over 150,000 people on the waiting list for an autism assessment in the UK

Where your money goes

£15 could help provide a safe virtual space for an autistic person through our online community.

£50 could help an autistic person overcome isolation, thanks to our branch and social group network.

£150 could help autistic young people thrive in school by funding our campaigning work for better autism training in education.

£500 could help close the employment gap for autistic people by ensuring vital employment advice is available for those looking for work.
