Autism Wessex Big Breakfast Total..
In support of our local charity Autism Wessex, we held a big breakfast event. Autism Wessex provides support in 3 main areas; Portfield School, Autism Advice Services and Community Support and Residential Services.
Portfield School
A non-maintained special school based in Christchurch, Dorset, was founded in 1971 by parents of children with autism. Managed by Autism Wessex, the school supports children and young people with autism and associated difficulties age 3-19.
Autism Advice Services
We offer free information and advice on a range of autism related topics to help people with autism, families and prodessionals to access services and plan for the future. Advice and information is available on diagnosis, education, behaviour, employment, benefits and support services.
The service also includes drop-in groups, benefits workshops and autism training programmes.
Community Support & Residential Services
Our Community Support and Residential Services offer a range of personalised social care services for people with autism and associated difficulties.
With the help of our licensees we raised a total off.... £160 for this great charity! Tom, the fundraising manager, from Autism Wessex joined us today to accept the cheque.
