"I’ve worked with neurodiversity over the years, but when it was my own 8-year-old facing hurdle after hurdle, it became much more personal."
Becca has chosen to run the Carsington Water Trail 10K to raise funds for Autism East Midlands, inspired by her experience raising her son.
While describing her current relationship with running as "complicated" (😅), she hopes to bring more awareness to families like hers.
Even if you can't donate, we encourage you to read Becca's story, shared on her JustGiving, because we feel it resonates with many parents that struggle to find support for loved ones.

Magic of movement! 🪄
Keeping moving ensures that we stay healthy, and at our supported living, it's important that exercise is enjoyable for residents too.
Sometimes we needn't even leave the house!🕺
Staff member Lorna had an amazing idea to help our residents have a dance and have a great time - she created a disco in the living room!
Everyone had so much fun. Who says we need to leave the house to go dancing? 😁
