You’re invited to our 2021
Virtual Summer Fun Day
From 10am onwards @AutismtogetherUK
We hereby invite you to Autism Together’s 2021 Virtual Summer Fun Day…
The Summer Fun Day team will be taking over our Facebook page: www.facebook.com/AutismtogetherUK from 10am on Sunday, July 25th.
Expect engaging videos throughout the day to entertain and interest. We’ll be bringing you new Facebook posts every 20 minutes from 10am right through to 5pm!
Why not enter our Pet Photo Competition in advance? Winners announced on the day…
Funds raised from this year’s event will go towards the installation of an external defibrillator at our Port Sunlight River Park site – an item which could save the lives of autistic people working at the park, the charity’s staff, volunteers, supporters or the general public who enjoy the site daily. You can donate here.
The Summer Fun Day is an important part of our calendar and a vital fundraiser to help our charity too, so please do tell everyone you know about the event and encourage them to browse our Facebook page throughout the day, check out what’s on offer and enjoy some of the videos and content we’ll be sharing.
See you there…
