HELP!! Where can i get a grant for a new garden fence for my Autistic child????
I have an autistic child who is unable to go out to play(as he is an easy target for the local bullies)and now he can’t play in his back garden as the fence is broken. The council say it is not their responsility as it is a dividing fence and not a perimeter one. My son has cut himself and got numerous splinters on many occasions and now my neighbour is unhappy as my child keep making attempts to climb the broken fence. Please help me if you can summer is just around the corner and he would love a safe area to play in. Thanks x
just to follow on after some comments my son was ALWAYS supervised when he was allowed out to play thats how I know that he was being bullied!! I’m not an overprotective parent who wishes to shelter her child from the outside world, it’s just the way he perceives the outside world is different to how we do.He already has low self esteem i just wanted my child to be able to play outside in the fresh air in peace. Yes fencing panels may be cheap but transporting them home and erecting them isn’t. I’m a full time carer for my autistic child and he also has ADHD. i am also a carer for my physically disabled mum so money is tight and time is precious as you can imagine!! I can really do without criticism my job is highly demanding and i do it because i care for my family. Please don’t critisize what you can’t understand. BE HAPPY

Autism is not just a state of mind it is as disabling as a physical disabilty,it goes unnoticed because you can’t physically see it. But to people who DO understand Autism will know they cannot just change their state of mind. If you would like to know more about autism please contact the National Autistic Society for more information it may just open your eyes!!!!
BUT to all those those people who have sent me informative and thoughtful answers i really appreciate it THANK YOU
