Every year we celebrate Step in the Right Direction Autism Dance Day and in our first year we received UNESCO Patronage.

It was a fantastic success, and everyone was dancing in lots of Schools, Colleges, Offices, Youth Clubs, in your lounge at home in fact everywhere across the UK. On the last Friday in April every year we celebrate this event, and we encourage large numbers of special needs and mainstream schools to organise dance events to raise funds for Autism.

We all know the positive benefits of dance for those with Autism and this has been demonstrated in the DVD Step in the right Direction click here to purchase this.

So, we thought we would take one step further and ask you to join in a nationwide dance festival to raise funds for Autism.

It’s easy to organise – someone brings the music, and the invitees provide the moves- and if we all get behind the occasion, we think it will really capture the imagination of children with Autism, their parents, carers, friends, and family, as well as local press and communities.

Anyone can join in whether they are touched by autism or would simply like to have fun and raise money for this great cause.

We would also like to share the fun by inviting you to upload pictures or video images, from your phone, then tag us in on social media using the links below. It’s a wonderful way of publicising our cause and showing off your event to your family, friends, and the nation.
