More about Buddy’s Charity
Buddy’s are a local charity based in Bury, Manchester whose aim is to inspire hope and contribute to the health and well being of children and adults with Autism; by providing the best support through friendship and education
Autism is a lifelong, developmental condition that affects how a person communicates with and relates to other people, and how they experience the world around them.
Approximately 700,000 people in the UK experience Autism that is 1% of the population. Buddy's provides a full range of activities and support
services that encompass the whole family such as a charity shop, sensory changing rooms, safe spaces, daily living skills and support groups.
In 2018, Buddy’s purchased a caravan in Lancashire to provide young people and their families much need respite care. In order for the caravan to be fit for purpose and a place to be enjoyed, it needs to be installed with safety and disability access, customized sensory equipment, a sensory garden
and disability aids.
We'd love your support!
