For the second year in a row, in support of World Autism Acceptance Week, we are planning a range of activities to raise both funds and awareness for the National Autistic Society. This weekend's game against Manchester City on Saturday 2nd April will be specially themed, with the first-team players warming up in branded National Autistic Society t-shirts. The match worn shirts from the game will also be signed and auctioned in the week following the fixture, with proceeds raised donated to the charity’s important work.
On the day LED screens in the stadium will also display the charity’s branding, ahead of kick-off.
In addition to the matchday activities, the fundraising starts early, with our Esports team holding a 60-hour marathon streaming challenge on Twitch, starting on Thursday (31st March).
Supporters can donate to the team’s efforts here, with all funds helping the National Autistic Society to provide support, guidance and advice to help create a society that works for autistic people.
