"Every child is entitled to a well-rounded education, but autistic children are at a disadvantage"
Rebecca started the non-profit organisation "Awesome Archie" during the lockdown of 2020. Her autistic son, Archie, struggled in a mainstream school, as did many other families with children who have neurological differences. Rebecca decided to try and help those families.
She has written and published four books about neuro-diversity, and provides free tutoring and online art therapy sessions.
Rebecca volunteers in several schools across Dorset and Hampshire to provide free educational workshops and in-school support, as well as providing several children with regular one-to-one support for autistic children.
