Journée de l’Autisme
Venez nombreux participer en famille à la Journée de l’Autisme avec animations et tombola solidaire au
Centre Commercial de Chambourcy
le samedi 7 octobre 2017 de 10h à 18h
Cette journée organisée par le Lions Club Yvelines Heraldic – à ce jour le seul Lions club anglophone de France – est destinée à mieux faire connaître ce handicap auprès d’un large public via des rencontres et des échanges entre les clients du centre commercial et les bénévoles et à récolter des fonds pour soutenir financièrement deux associations du département s’occupant d’enfants et adultes avec autisme à savoir :
- L’association de parents « Autisme en Yvelines » dont le siège est situé à Marly-le-Roi
- Le centre de Loisirs « Bulle d’Air » pour enfants handicapés de Croissy-sur-Seine
Ce jour-là nous organiserons avec la participation des deux associations bénéficiaires, différentes animations pour les enfants (ateliers bracelet, chansons en langage des signes, pêche à la ligne…) ainsi qu’une tombola solidaire avec des lots en provenance en particulier des différentes enseignes de la Galerie commerciale ainsi que du centre commercial Carrefour, nos premiers mécènes.
Les fonds collectés via l’opération du 7 octobre seront intégralement reversés aux deux associations pour financer leurs projets pour les enfants ou les adultes avec autisme, mais aussi pour aider les parents sous forme de programme de formation.

Pour rappel, on considère qu’une naissance sur 100 en France est concernée par les TSA (Troubles du Spectre Autistique), soit environ 8000 naissances par an. 650 000personnes environ seraient atteintes dans notre pays selon les prévalences reconnues au niveau international. En dépit des différents plans gouvernementaux successifs (le 4e plan autisme qui succèdera au 3e plan 2013-2017 est prévu pour début 2018), notre pays accuse toujours un important retard par rapport à nos voisins européens pour le diagnostic, la prise en charge et la scolarisation des enfants avec autisme.

The human crisis in Calais and Dunkerque is tragic and whilst governments and NGOs are now making a substantial difference for the 9,000 plus refugees and migrants remaining there, the scale of the problem is still enormous. The Centre Jules Ferry feeds some 1,500 people a day, SALAM and Auberge des Migrants, the two volunteers associations based in Pas de Calais, are providing clothing, food & meals to both camps, another group is providing medical supplies. With the plan to relocate many of the migrants away from Pas de Calais there is even more acute need for clothes and food now. On recent trips to the camps it is clear that there are too many clothes but never enough food. We would like you to pledge some money so that we can buy the specific food they need when we arrive at the camp and otherwise we would appreciate you collecting food and packing for us to collect in the coming 14 days.

May 14 – Calais – Dunkirk – Collaboration
This past weekend the team were once again back in action in the camps in Northern France. A joint action between LCYH and Refugee Aide – Volunteer Support created by Richard Turk.
Our teams joined forces and donations to make an even deeper impact across the Jungle camp in Calais and in Dunkerque.
We loaded up in Friday night with the fantastic donations of clothes and food boxes. We complimented these with a trip to Carrefour and bought up nearly every orange in Croissy-sur-Seine.
After an early start on Saturday the team working in L’Auberge des Migrants warehouse arrived for the morning briefing at 9 in Calais. Sadly, numbers of volunteers are down dramatically vs last month. Only 16 people turned up at the briefing in Calais. BUT with tasks assigned (Rob in the wood chopping team, Alison in the Calais Kitchen, Beth, Reid, Micaela and Richard on the clothes sorting table) we went at it for the morning.
Many many thanks to Daniele Ruff and ESAT/Avenir Apei for the loan of the truck! The truck full of your goodies piloted by the Lions Club team made its way to the Calais warehouse, dropped it’s valuable cargo and headed to Dunkerque to drop at the Salam association with much needed tinned fruit and biscuits to help with their almost daily 2-400 meals they distribute at Grande Synthe.
With the €600 in cash raised from Zoé Dickson and the students of the Lycée International (thank you!) and supplemented by Lux Perpetua Choir Bob and his team made a very much needed visit to Decathlon and bought up 37 x pairs of trainers using money donated by you which will be distributed by SALAM to Grande Synthe refugees where needed.
At the Calais kitchen supplies were running a little low, so we arranged a trip to Lidl and bought out the local supply of onions and garlic. Brought back to the Calais Kitchen the team there made up the daily hot food supplies and distribution was made.
Meanwhile Tony, Bruno and Wendy met with and visited a small association “Le Reveil voyageur”. They began by providing morning coffee, croissants and bread, delivered daily to the main refugee site in Calais. They have since broadened their activities providing what’s needed on a daily basis guided by the discussions with individuals and small groups that they have progressively befriended over the past few months. They now provide items of clothing, household effects, French language training and try to respond to iother simp^le demands coming from the refugees themselves.
The Reveil Voyageur held a small but well but well attended exhibition about the interests and lives of the refugees as refugees.
