The Scottish Society for Autism is an independent Scottish registered charity (SC009068) established in 1968 and has been supporting people with autism for over 40 years. It aims to provide care, support, opportunity and education for individuals of all ages living with this condition throughout their lives. Working together with families, carers, agencies and professionals it seeks to improve understanding of autism, influence policy and practice and provide the best possible services, founded on the most up-to-date knowledge and expertise.
Although the Society does receive some government funding, funds raised by volunteers through a variety of challenges help enormously to extend the range of services, activities and interventions available to meet the needs of those who need it most. By embarking on the Great Wall Trek I aim to raise as much as I can to be added to the Society's general funds for distribution across the whole of the country.
