Autism Awareness Day Challenge

World Autism Awareness Day (WAAD) aims to put a spotlight on the hurdles that people with autism and others living with autism face every day. As a growing global health issue owing to its increasing exposure in the press and common knowledge, autism is an issue that is only gaining more understanding and WAAD activities are planned every year to further increase and develop world knowledge of children and adults who have autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

What’s more, World Autism Awareness Day goes one step further to celebrate the unique talents of those with autism, while putting a huge focus on the warm embrace and welcome that these skills deserve through community events around the globe.

You can complete your challenge any time from now, but Autism Awareness day is 2nd April, where you are encouraged to go 'as colourful as possible!' hence the bold and bright design on this 100% metal medal.

20% of entry will go direct to an autism charity of your choosing*
