We’re Sponsoring Autism Wessex’s Accept My Autism Campaign
27 Mar 2019
We’re pleased to announce that Williams Thompson is sponsoring the Accept My Autism campaign this April. Having supported Autism Wessex for over 6 years, Williams Thompson has a close relationship with the charity, and campaigns such as Accept My Autism are vital for the work they do for charities.
This year, we have decided to sponsor the brand new Accept My Autism campaign. Autism affects more than 1 in 100 people in the UK, meaning 2.8million people have a relative that is on the autism spectrum. This campaign will be raising vital funds to support the work of Autism Wessex in championing for greater accessibility and acceptance. Here is how you can help:
It could be simple. A dress down day? Cake and coffee morning? You can do anything you want to raise money. Just choose a date and let Autism Wessex know by emailing fundraising@autismwessex.org.uk. It’s not just limited to one person either – why not try some corporate fundraising at work?
As well as raising funds for the charity, the Accept My Autism campaign aims to invite people with autism to share their thoughts on what others can do to create an open and accepting community for people with autism.
Suzanne Kadziola, Practice Manager at Williams Thompson Solicitors LLP, said:
“We’re very pleased to be sponsoring this wonderful brand-new campaign from Autism Wessex. It is a very noble cause and Williams Thompson are happy to help in any way. We have built a fantastic relationship over the last 6 years with Autism Wessex. Previously we held an event for Autism Wessex’s 50th birthday, which was a great way of celebrating their achievements. This year have opted to sponsor the Accept My Autism campaign.”
