The Shambelurklers Return: Support National Autistic Society

October 28, 2014 By SO53 News 7 Comments

The Shambelurklers Return is a collection of short stories and poems for children. Two of the stories were written by Chandler’s Ford authors, Allison Symes and Richard Hardie.

All royalties of the book go directly to The National Autistic Society, the UK’s leading charity for people affected by autism.

The Shambelurklers Return: Raising money for children on the autism spectrum.

Accept difference. Not indifference.

We want a world where all people living with autism get to lead the life they choose.

We will transform understanding of autism and make sure everyone living with autism gets the support they need.

From the website of The National Autistic Society

The Shambelurklers Return can be bought from Amazon, or from Lulu.com. Editor: Marit Meredith.

South Hampshire Branch National Autism Society

The South Hampshire Branch of National Autistic Society offers a wide range of support and activities. Children and family meet at the Chandler’s Ford Methodist Church on Winchester Road, in the afternoon of every first Saturday of the month, from 3.30pm to 5.30pm.
