As we roll into Summer, we start to see the end of the academic years celebrations "prize giving", "shirt signing", "parties" and "proms". This can be such a difficult time for the community of youngsters that can't access these events, for many reasons. If this works, who knows what's next? It would be amazing to see this go bigger and better next year and reach more young people in UK who would benefit from this special experience. Please go to https://gofund.me/d1db555f to donate 🙏🏻

My daughter Lucy (17) has been and is still going though a very challenging time. From Autistic burnout due to school failures to battles with her own health, resulting in being diagnosed with IIH (Idiopathic Intercranial Hypertension), Chronic pain syndrome and is currently being investigated for Neurological issues.

Despite all this, she wants to support her community near and far. I am so proud or her and want her to know how much I love, admire and cherish her for the kind, loving and beautiful soul she is ✨️.

Always leading with a strong will to help others, she has created a "gofundme" for our local community group "Onwards" who are arranging an "inclusive prom" for its members who are Autistic, have ADHD and/or Anxiety.

We were lucky enough, as members to be part of last year's celebrations and the night was so wonderful. Seeing this amazing group if teenagers and young adults have the opportunity to have a "Prom" experience was a memory I will never forget.

This is a non profit community group, which is run tirelessly by volunteers. They rely on their community to support them by donations of raffle gifts, prizes for tombola and odds & ends to make the night a Special one. If you have anything you may be able to offer please message me 🙏🏻

This year they want to do it all again on 25th July, my daughter decided to create this gofundme to help, as she wants to make this the best night possible.

So I ask, the wonderful people of this community, if you are able to donate, even a small amount would be amazing, I want to see her smash her goal and be successful in her mission.
