Rob Bishop from British Orienteering explained:  “We firmly believe that the sport is ideal for anyone with the condition and allows families and individuals to take part at any level. We hope that the children that take part in these events will take part in more orienteering activities from permanent orienteering course's to club events.”

The autism-friendly events will be taking place throughout the summer at Heaton Park, Manchester. Everyone is welcome to bring siblings, friends and dogs to these free events. We are situated by the Stables Café from 11 am until 1 pm.

Everyone who takes part gets to keep their Xplorer map and receives a certificate.
