Fundraising
Here at Lothian Autistic Society we are reliant on your support. Without your help we cannot continue to run our desperately needed services for children and young people with autism and their families.
We are always looking for your support so why not get involved by checking out a few fundraising ideas below!
Walk/Run for Scotland - Sunday 6th June - support LAS
Challenge Scotland events are aimed at everybody, are a fun day out and are a great way to raise money for your favourite organisation! Anybody who wishes to take part is welcome and participants can walk or run as a team or individual.
There are 2 options of walks, 12 or 6 miles, both around the city of Edinburgh. The 12 mile walk starts at Holyrood Park on 6th June 2010 at 11am and the 6 mile walk begins at 11.10 am.
The Golden Mile is a walk primarily aged at the very young, elderly and disabled who feel they cannot manage the 6 mile walk. Any carers accompanying participants in the Golden Mile will not be charged an entry fee.
Run for Scotland is a 5k (3.1 miles) run and begins at 9.30 am in Holyrood Park on 6th June.
The Challenge Scotland events promise to be a great day out so show your support for LAS and sign up today! To do so go to www.challengescotland.com and register under Lothian Autistic Society. Don't forget you can also set up online sponsorship at www.justgiving.co.uk/lothianautistic
