Fondation Autisme Need Your Help!
It is hard to believe that it’s almost one year since we hosted our information evening (plus drinks of course!) in the city with Fondation Autisme and learned all about the great work they do to defend the quality of life for young people living with the condition.
For any of you who are new to Serve the City, and who might not know much about Fondation Autisme, please have a read through our blog from last year to find out more about this fantastic charity.
This Autumn FAL have lots of opportunities to volunteer. They need people to help support youngsters on much needed days out in the region. We would encourage any of you to stop for a moment and consider whether, with the correct training (which is now being provided -dates are listed on their website) – you might have the energy and enthusiasm to offer physical support and companionship to young people on fun filled day trips and local outings. It makes such a huge difference and it also brings respite for their parents and carers.
FAL also need keen fundraisers to sell homemade items at various Christmas markets.The markets are a great way of helping the charity, meeting new people and finding out more about their work without making too big a commitment.
