FAVVO Donation
We would like to say a massive thank you for the following donation.
A donation of £900 was made to Autism Rocks (Fife) by the Fife Association of Vintage Vehicle Owners (F.A.V.V.O.). F.A.V.V.O. hold an annual event, during August, for the showing of vintage vehicles, near Ladybank.. They then use the money that they make, to support local charities. This donation was made in memory of one of their member, Brian Sheerins, who sadly passed away in April last year.
When Brian's family were asked to nominate a local charity to receive the gift from F.A.V.V.O., they recommended Autism Rocks (Fife) as a worthy cause. Brian was very close to his grandson who has ASD, so it was felt that this is something that he would have supported. Brian's wife and daughter presented the cheque to Liza Quin on behalf of F.A.V.V.O. during Autism Awareness Week.
This donation will be used to maintain our sensory garden for the summer. Re painting. planting and improving what we have. Many thanks for the support. It means so so much .
