What’s Silly Sock Day?
Autism Awareness Day is on Friday 14th June. Hampshire Autistic Society would like you to get involved by taking part in Silly Sock Day.
You can help raise awareness and funds for autism across Hampshire. But how?
On Silly Sock Day:
- Get rid of your boring dark coloured every day socks.
- Wear silly, colourful socks and make a donation to the charity (suggested £1).
Why not get your whole school or business in wacky socks for the day?
If you require any further help or guidance please contact their fundraising organiser on 01489 880881 ext 208 or e-mail lucy.ward@has.org.uk
