Synopsis

At times, nine-year-old George has found life really tough. He’s autistic, which means he sometimes finds it hard to sit still and concentrate. He struggled to go to school and started falling out with his mum. Now, thanks to local charity Autism Angels, which is funded by Comic Relief, George spends every Wednesday outdoors with horses, connecting with nature and making new friends. For the first time, he feels like he really belongs. He’s grown in confidence, his behaviour has improved and he’s much happier. Watch our short film made especially for primary schools to learn more about how your fundraising can help projects like this.
