Step up and help create a more inclusive world for children on the autism spectrum - so they don't get left behind.
Despite the growing number of children on the autism spectrum, many of their peers are still not familiar with what autism is and what kind of support they can and should provide their friends.
Lack of understanding means many children on the autism spectrum struggle to make and keep friends and are left out of social activities, leading to feelings of exclusion and isolation.
At Aspect, our goal is to create a world where no-one on the autism spectrum is left behind. But we can’t do that without the support of everyone in the community. For children on the spectrum to meaningfully participate in the world around them, there needs to be change in the classroom.
Walk for autism is an easy, fun and rewarding way to learn about autism, get active and create positive change.
Because it is a virtual event, your school team can decide the course, location and time you want to walk during the eight-day event. Challenge each other to walk 10,000 steps before and after school, during recess and lunch breaks.
Get the entire school involved or break into staff, year or class teams and challenge each other to raise as much as possible to support children on the autism spectrum.
