Paul Temple has worked with Leeds Autism Services for a number of years, looking after our mobile phones and telecoms whilst at BAK Ltd. and more recently with his new company Paul Temple Property Improvements. 

Back in September, Paul and his brother, Jason, completed the Great North Run in aid of our charity, raising an amazing £377.60 

We'd like to say a massive thank you to Paul and his brother for taking part in the run to support us. We really appreciate it!

Before completing the run, Paul said: 

"Autistic people are among the most marginalised, excluded, and isolated groups within our society. Many autistic people suffer from loneliness, loss of confidence and self-esteem, and are at a significantly higher risk of developing serious physical and mental health problems. We know that with the right support, all autistic people are capable of achieving their goals, contributing to society, and living happy, healthy, and fulfilled lives.

Leeds Autism Services rely on donations to provide help and advice to autistic people and their families; to provide education around what it means to be autistic, and promote better autism understanding within our communities; to ensure their bases are well-resourced for the people who they support; and to provide new opportunities to help autistic people connect with their communities and feel included."
