Our judges had a really tough time selecting the finalists this year for Autism Hero Awards 2019, as so many people give so much time to help the lives of others. It was hard to choose finalists because they are all so deserving.
The Autism Community therefore has so much to give to society of large and they are all winners!
‘Together with my team we want to celebrate the unforgotten heroes that go the extra mile and make life-changing steps that impact and improve the quality of life for autistic individuals and the lives of their families.There will also be a Special Recognition Award and Charity Volunteer of the Year which will be announced on the night. I look forward to meeting you and congratulations for being a finalist.’
