Date: 21st Dec 2022

Deadline: 11th Dec 2022

Battersea Park London SW11 4NJ

Battersea Park is one of London’s most picturesque parks and has been a favourite course for those wanting to run a PB! The course is totally flat, offering the perfect opportunity to push yourself to a personal best. Starting and finishing at the Parks Bandstand this course laps the park making it easy to follow and great for any spectators to catch you flying round the course.

Dogs for Autism is a registered charity which supports children and adults across the autistic spectrum, from those who are non-verbal with complex learning difficulties, to high achieving university students. Through the provision of our assistance dogs, provided and trained by the charity at no cost to the autistic client, and trained to mitigate the disabling impacts of autism, we are committed to creating partnerships that impact positively on the lives of autistic people and families.
Independence, access to education, the workplace and the community bring joys and riches taken for granted by most. The people we work with experience profound barriers to experiencing their world, but with the help of an assistance dog their potential is finally unlocked in a way that no other support or interventions achieve, providing a lifeline where no comparable help is available.
How you can help It costs £20,000 to change the life of an autistic person by funding their dog from selection to retirement. A donation of £1000 would enable us to provide a training session a week for six months, while £5000 would provide bonding sessions for three autistic people and their dogs for a year.
