Ambitious about Autism Appeal

Ambitious about Autism logoTreeHouse needs to raise funds to build our National Centre for Autism Education. The National Centre will provide a permanent home for our school and our range of national services. It will secure the education of our current and future pupils and allow us to expand our national work, driving up standards and making autism a priority for decision-makers.

Constructing our National Centre will cost £11.5 million and TreeHouse has launched the Ambitious about Autism appeal to secure the funds required. Towards this goal, TreeHouse has received an investment of £5 million from Futurebuilders, a fund set up by the Home Office to increase the capacity of the voluntary sector to deliver public services. In addition, the appeal has attracted a pledge from Nick Hornby who will donate all of the film rights to his novel How To Be Good, which could amount to £2 million, and further pledges of over £1 million.
