We are delighted that Charles Evans has reached his target for the Backwards Marathon fundraiser, but there is still time to donate!

Charles, who is running 42 laps of the Nottingham Rec on Sunday 7th September, has reached his target for the Backwards Marathon and we're so pleased for him.

Charles and his amazing team came into AEM Head Office a few weeks ago to film a section for their documentary, here is a sneak peek.

In this section of the documentary, Director Ben Brown refers to autism as a 'superpower' and talks about how being autistic can be a strength when it is better understood.

There is still plenty of time to donate, https://gofund.me/739d8cd6
