Great day for a walk!
I loved today’s walk! Luna and I wandered around for 2 hours while the sun was shining. We got to see places we never noticed before and we said hallo to lots of birds! We got 10km done today and we were so proud of ourselves 🤩What a day! Go team Ruben
A very exciting walk today as I walked for the first time wearing my lovely AADI t-shirt!! 6km done even if it was a very busy day. Rebecca made the walk more enjoyable as usual!Go Team Ruben

I'm fundraising for Ruben
Thank you for supporting us on our 50 Miles in October Challenge. We are delighted to be taking part in this fundraiser to help raise vital funds for AADI's Be A SuPAWhero campaign. Let us tell you about our story...
In July 2021 the ADDI reopened the waiting list and allocated 30 Autism Assistance Dogs to 30 families. We were one of the lucky ones and we have been able to secure a dog for our youngest son, Ruben. Ruben is a happy, funny, smart, brave little boy with autism. He has many strengths and we are so proud of him every day. He is however a flight risk individual and he has no sense of danger particularly when out and about. He can run into roads if in distress or if overwhelmed, two very common feelings for autistic children. The primary role of an Assistance dog is to prevent a child from running into danger when they are outside the house. In the coming months, one of these wonderful and highly trained dogs will join our family and will change our life for the better! However, for every family like ours who was successful there were 6 disappointed families, who were not so lucky. That's nearly 200 families who are still awaiting the opportunity. So here we are hoping to help other children like Ruben
The aim of the campaign is to reopen the waiting list in 2022 and offer more children the life changing support of an autism assistance dog. Thanks to your donation, we are on track to hel AADI reach their goal of raising €500,000 to train a further 25 assistance dogs.
It costs €22,000 and takes 2 years to train and place an assistance dog. They do not charge families for these life changing dogs. The charity is entirely supported by fundraising and donations. Please donate what you can and support us and this wonderful charity.
Thanks, Sara & Gordon

Hi Sara and Gordon, so lovely that you are doing this for Reuben and all the family. It’s lovely to see you out walking and that Reuben is content with his friend. Reuben is such a lovely little boy and was kaceys first friend. She might join you one day on a walk ❤️

I am so happy for Ruben and for you all that he will be getting a support dog. And I love that you are doing this to keep going and support others who haven’t got their dogs.
