Chairman Maria Cook said: “It was a wonderful joyful evening of celebrations and we were full of pride to see so many of the families we support being able to relax and enjoy themselves in an understanding and inclusive environment.
“Lots of children with autism overcame their anxieties to perform in front of the microphone for the very first time.
“There wasn’t a dry eye amongst the parent and carers as we watched them sing with acceptance and without fear.

“Everyone had so much fun and no one wanted the evening to end. Here’s to the next ten years.”
