World Autism Awareness Month starts tomorrow, April 2nd, and sees a whole month dedicated to raising awareness and promoting acceptance of ASD (autism spectrum disorder). ASD affects an estimated 700,000 children and adults in the UK alone.
Across Harborough Town we have players throughout our teams whom are affected by ASD, whether it is themselves or a family member, and whom enjoy playing and supporting our club – this includes our very own First Team Manager Mitch Austin and Maz Hayton who have family members whom are diagnosed with ASD, and as part of our 3 star accreditation we are proud to partner Wigston Foxes Inclusive football team.
So, this April please join us in raising understanding and awareness.
